Apparently not, considering the
heroic-bordering-on-bombastic tone and terms some
writers use to trumpet postmodernisms advantages,
touting it as a worldview superior in one or another
way to those it claims to deconstruct.  ;)

Having said that, let me hasten to add, nobody enjoys
a thoughful poststructuralist/postcolonialist/post*
analysis -- the book _Drug Wars: The Political Economy
of Narcotics_ by Curtis Marez that I'm finishing
today, for example, which I recommend to all Pynchon
readers -- than I do. 

FYI, new posts at pynchonoid.org today.

Brotherly,
