Bet you will like Tanner, he's was one of the best. 

If you read page 86 in his last book (the essay on
Melville's C-M) you are sure to have a good laugh.

How does one account for the pessimistic and
conservative influence of Henry Adams on TRP? 

I bet you have read all the tales Tanner deal with in
the book, so that's a good start. 

Seeing Pynchon next to Hawthorne, Adams, Twain, Irving
Delillo, Emerson, Melville, James Willy and Henry),
just majes my day. 

Cheerfully, 

Boquita
