Pynchon galleys circulate

[Henry Winkler]

No. It sounded to me like Marianne W. was saying ATD was a big pile of crap. I checked the NBA rules on this and they say that...

D. Books scheduled for publication between December 1, 2005 and November 30, 2006 are eligible.

See for yourself. http://www.nationalbook.org/nbaentry.html

Publication date on ATD is November 21, 2006 per Amazon. Wasn't it moved up from Christmas for NBA eligibility in the first place? Anyway, Marianne W. has written many a crap book in her own right (John Dollar).

The galley is actually opened to the inside front page, isn't it.

Wasn't Marianne Wiggins comment re AtD that "it was patently obvious it 
wasn't a contender" simply an acknowledgement that the novel's release 
date etc meant it didn't meet the rules of the contest. That's the way 
I read it anyway.
