Fw: Recommendations

[Betsy Platt]

Yo, MalignD,
Robbins may be an egregious hack, (since when has this list held *that* against anyone?) and most of his books are extremely annoying, but I think JP is an example of "sometimes even the blind squirrel gets the acorn". I think anyone who's deigned to read it will agree that it has that sweet goofiness of Pynchon. Besides, if you'll recall, I only brought him up as a b-list based on the nomination of Messiah of Stockholm.

Plus, I have found another list. You didn't think this was an exclusive relationship, did you?

    <<Tom Robbins's Jitterbug Perfume (Skinny Legs & All is a distant second>>


  I'm sorry, but anyone recommending something by this egregious hack needs find another list.

  (And yes, I know Tom "I'll blurb anyone" Pynchon claims to have liked one of his books.)
