Sufferin' Succotash

[pynchonoid]

I guess I was thinking more about the future reactions
of literary critics compared to the reactions we've
heard so far to the Book Description, the Title, plus
the usual whining about Vineland and M&D, especially
here but also elsewhere.

I expect ATD to get a range of reviews on publication,
from scathing to reverent, building on the impressive
reception given to M&D and the advance publicity and
promotional campaign that appears to be underway and
which I expect to intensify in the coming months.
