This is probably going to make me sound, yet again, like a
Neanderthal shouting from the back of the classroom, and might
even destroy my career and end a few friendships and scandalize
my children and cast shame upon my ancestors—but I have
something to confess. After years of deceiving myself and others
(felonious head nods in grad seminars, forced cocktail-party
chuckles), I have decided it’s time to stop living a literary-critical
lie. There is no easy way to say this, so here it is. I hate Thomas
Pynchon.
