VL is apparently *not* about WORK

[Tim Strzechowski]

Terrance:

"I guess if we ignore the text we can say Vineland is about anything we want."

[...]

"This novel is about Work, Partnerships, Business Contracts, Deals, Rats, Scabs, in other words Pynchon has written your classic American Labor novel."


Later, the following:

> I don't buy Terrance's claim that "WORK" is the only theme in the novel. 

It's not the only one. 

>I think there are many themes and details in the book worth discussing. 

Me too. And I'm not limiting my posts to Work. 



Just trying to get a handle on your position, is all . . .
