[Monica Belevan]

Laurence Sterne ( Tristram Shandy? Sentimental Journey?), Gustave Flaubert ( 
Salambo?), anything by Faulkner, Rilke ( Book of Hours), some Burguess, 
Celine´s ´´ ...nuit´´ bit regarding the colonies, Joseph Conrad ( Nostromo, 
Heart of Darkness)?

It all reflects on Pynchon, the finest way to dwell on him in amplitude is 
by making Pynchon scholarship resonate in the framework of the existing 
literary cannon. It´s setting him into the widest possible context.
