Another way to categorize TRPs oeuvre

[David Patty]

Having just finished 'V.' and poring over Kerry Grant's companion volume
now, I agree w/ the assessment of the gender relations in the work being
less than embarrassing--  if anything, they're fairly accurate in describing
the changing / conflicting mores, morals & sexual codes of the times &
places described.  The Pynchon behind 'V.' was certainly a few thousand
steps ahead of his one-time hero Kerouac when it came to talking honestly
about love & lust...  Much more so than the younger man who wrote
'Low-Lands'.
