Pynchon Character Names

[Mark Kohut]

The book is good, carefully solid. The project was the author's thesis. 
Therefore, he kept rigorous academic standards, arguing nuancedly for 
meanings and associations. He kept out (most; maybe all) Kute Korrespondences, and informs of levels of waywardness of speculations, in his judgment.

He respects and gets Pynchon's work---one might say "loves" it discriminatingly, if that were not such an unacademic word.
