Il Giornale on Pynchon

[robinlandseadel at comcast.net]

"He is a man of dumps,"

Semper dolens. . . . 

". . . .his stories are fed by the refuse of the literary society. 
He is  a vagabond of the great depression who rummages in the 
waste."

Found my very first copy of "The Crying of Lot 49"---a stripped 
mass market copy--- on its way to a waste bin and soon 
thereafter found myself commuting via the Transbay Terminal, 
just across the street from "Fun Terminal".
