New Pynchon

[rich]

i'm thinking we'll see more of Lew Basnight in the new novel--what
with alternate worlds and bi-location and psychic/psychedlic
detectives

reminds me of Algernon Blackwood's "psychic detective"  John Silence

>From a master storyteller of supernatural tales come 6 horror stories
that launched the career of "psychic doctor" John Silence: "A
Psychical Invasion," "Ancient Sorceries," "Secret Worship," "The
Nemesis of Fire," "The Camp of God," and "A Victim of Higher Space."
Edited and with an introduction by occult fiction authority S. T.
Joshi.
