Is redemption possible? Helmut Müller-Sievers, a Germanist at
Northwestern University, looked to Thomas Pynchon's newest novel
"Against the Day" for answers. "Pynchon replies with a resounding yes,
not only with his characters and unfailing belief in the healing
powers of sex & drugs & rock'n'roll, but also, and even more so, in
the gift of his novel itself. Drug consumption without a bad comedown,
sex without a bad conscience, dogs that read Henry James (the late
works): of course it's a utopian novel. But the hours spent reading it
are real, and really satisfying. Unfortunately, they're also
irrecoverable."
