>>>Keith, can I ask how you propose to read "Pale Fire?" Do you have a
structure in mind, a specific text, specific readers who would provide
commentary for the rest to bounce off of, a sense of methodology,
purpose, time limit?<<<
I would propose using the methodology we have used in previous group reads.
Divide the novel up into 2 week segments with a designated host for each
section. we usually do about 20 pages every two weeks. If we decide to do
Pale Fire we can get more specific then, especially in dealing with the
poem, which would be a first here.
>>>I think any structured discussion will be interesting. I would have voted
for "Vineland," since, from what I can gather, Pynchon-L has never done
it, not even once. (Can that be true?)<<<
We have discussed Vineland once.
