There's no need to argue, Terrance. Just start in on
the ferschligginer thing. I have the novel at hand,
even. As I do the miscellany. It's all a search and
a click away (again, Glenn, though, good idea posting
the link with the commentary). If y'all could get
through Pale Fire whilst we were doing Vineland (and
we've been back at it, I'll note), if we can go on
about anything and everything whilst going on about
anything and everything else, well ... but Gravity's
Rainbow is somehow less "esoteric" than a handful of
essays, bbook reviews, liner notes and blurbs?
Sheesh. Not only needn't this be an either/or choice,
Terrance, it never has been, and never need be ... so
do it or don't, but don't complain if you won't ...
