But they were all we doggone had.  I had never heard of Gaddis back in my 
village,  If fact it was so long ago nobody had heard of him yet.

I like Gaddis because he recalls the 50s for me.  Intellectual people  DID talk 
like that back then.  They talked about classical music and famous poems like 
the Waste Land and quoted a lot of things.  They were imbued with a lot of 
European culture.  Now it would seem affected but it didn't back then.

Ah, Wilderness.
