Seems ms. Donadio was not Gaddis' agent for The Recognitions however...earlier 
than she was agenting..

Candida Donadio -- an Honorary Unsubscribe
A literary agent, Donadio's first task in the business in 1957 was to bring 
Joseph Heller's first novel Catch 18 to the world

Didn't know Pynchon and Gaddis shared the same agent. Could imagine     that 
there exists a very similar letter to Pynchon ... But of course     I don't 
know. Has anybody read that letter from 1963?
