Someone (else) speak on Inherent Vice..?

It's been done. It's easy enough to look up. But the point remains
that you all have not been able to provide any text evidence for the
claim that the author has written a text that reflects or expounds or
in any way truly shines a light on his project as author. IV is an
abortion when set next to AGTD and GR. It really has little in the way
of enhancing or informing our reading of his major works. I would add
that it is far less useful than the slow learners of the essays. As a
work of art, it fails. As a window or peek into the author's creative
process or mind when he composed other works or as an introduction to
his works and his contribution to literature, its nearly a blind spot,
merely a commercial we sit and watch.
