Quoth Michiko K.:
"Although there are some wonderful, deeply moving passages in “The Lay of the Land” that evoke what it is like to be a middle-aged, middle-class man at the turn of the millennium, these passages are buried beneath pages and pages of self-indulgent self-analysis and random ruminations about real estate in New Jersey — not the makings of a fitting follow-up to “The Sportswriter” and “Independence Day,” only the stale ingredients of an unnecessary and by-the-numbers sequel."
Ouch!!
Pynch better be at the very top of his game with ATD. Otherwise, Michiko K. will be pwning him like she did poore Richard Ford. Michiko-san seems very pissed off lately.
