Greatest living ...

[David Morris]

I'm with Kai on this one.  GR was Pynchon's greatest (and last great)
work (and a modern masterpiece).  But, unlike Kai, I dislike Vineland.
 I've only read M&D once, and I remember liking it, so I'll hold back
a call on that one.  But a whole lot of AtD was annoying, and
pointless, and it is pretty much a disjointed work, IMHO.
