      obviously you did not even scratch the novel's deeper layers.


         (playlist addition -- jefferson airplane: "volunteers")


        we'll come to that later this summer ... join the group-read!


   + KFL: reading thomas mann's pope-novel "der erwählte" - 



Keyword: "Volunteers," as if there were alternatives, Well, maybe there
were, but for Prairie? By the end there may be one for her, too. In my
projection she spends the rest of her teen years with her mom (helps
her through the split-up with Flash) and visits Zoyd maybe once a month,
a couple of weeks in the summer, sort of thing. These characters, some
of whom have been around since Oedipa's day, need a sequel. Any ideas?
