Another AtD review

[David Morris]

I agree that this review reveals a bit of the plot development, but in
the scheme of things it doesn't spoil anything for me either.  More
spoiler thoughts about this review, which I've read, "below the fold."

With a family , the Traverses, forming a core around which
developments unfold, especially where the female daughter marries the
arch-enemy, I see shades of Vineland.

With a son of this family having his education being paid for by this
arch-enemy, GR is obviously invoked.

The reviewer ends by saying Pynchon has jumped the shark w/ AtD.  I hope not...
