"Dennis Hopper ain't no phony.  Dennis Hopper is, you know, down."

... but Hollander is hardly  making Pynchon rather than his texts "the
event."  He's reading tehm--closley--alongside as close a reading as
is publically possible of Pynchon's personal, genalogical and
historical context ...

... and whether or not any of us, or anybody anywhere--much less
Pynchon himself--agree with him--me, personally, I do and I don't,
depending--Hollander has at least risked an Interpretation, a
Reading,something I sen fair little to none  of here otherwise...
