speaking just for me...

Same thing GR, Vineland, V and M&D are about: the beautiful moments,
the jokes and
the prose.  But especially the beautiful moments.
Lake and Deuce's wedding
the guy playing guitar in the street
Tesla in a cave rationing his cigarettes
Yashmeen's skirt blowing over her head
Merle at the hub of a wheel of golden wheatfields
Darby setting the ropes straight
Lindsay biting into a pearl
the ice in Iceland
the headmaster of the Marching Academy
Lake relaxing with the sheriff's wife
the breakfast in jail
the stable scene with Dittany and Kit
et al
