Suspect IV will be same

Hi Rich. I'm not sure I'm quite clear on exactly what Mr Morgan is
saying here.... Ironically, I find *his* prose style fairly confused....

I think there's a chance that Pynchon fans who don't like Vineland will
like IV even les. But there's also a chance they'll enbd up liking it
more than Vineland. Could go either way. But the book is very enjoyable
on its own terms, don't prepare for disappointment!
