Sorry, NYC, where Barthelme lived. Comes from extrapolating
from the new bio of Barthelme...

Okay, I'll admit that I'm a rube. What city were all these folks in
at the time? As I recall, Farina died in '66 upon the publication of
his novel, Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up To Me, which I remember
to have been quite a gas to read and clearly points to a friendship
that influenced Pynchon significantly (or maybe vice versa, or both.)
