pretty sure everybody is tired of my animadverting here, so this is my
last contribution to this thread, the better to follow along with
Laura's hostship for the rest of the week (although there's one more
Mark post I have earmarked to return to at some point...) but a
torrent of insights flowed through me and I really wanted to express
some of the alluvia
such as the question of morals and mores and how as a novelist he's
allowed to explore issues without giving final answers
adding just a light touch on the Catholic-influence possibility
and a stout defense of Pynchon's characterization M.O. (and thinking
of how the glimpses caught of the characters, like sunlight thru a
stained glass window, for me illuminate and enliven them more than I
can express well (obviously)
