get over the blurb already

[Monte Davis]

Get over GR already. Should TRP have retreated into Perfected Master silence
in 1973, or rewritten your favorite book again and again?

GR is a very great book indeed, and benefits from what may be a
once-in-a-lifetime resonance of the author's and the culture's take on
paranoid "explanation." But IMO Vineland and M&D both show advances away
from V's and GR's whiff of Baedeker --in converting research into [what
feels like] lived experience.
