First of All....
.....immeasurable thanx to all you posters from a dedicated lurker (several years now, thanx to a Hyperarts link). The only novel of Pynchon's that has not been group read since I started lurking is _Gravity's Rainbow_. Following the group reads has advanced my appreciation and (dare I say?) understanding of Pynchon and associated topics beyond my wildest expectations. I would personally be delighted to see a group read of _GR_.
As a possible "alternative", what about a "critical" review of Wiesenberger's _Companion_? I found his book very helpful, but a lot of the material is so complex, that I do not feel qualified to simply accept all of his interpretations without any critical challenges. Methinx I would enjoy the additional input from all the various areas of purported expertise revealed by the P-Listers in their postings.
truly,
ruud
