Pynchon/Hillman

[Mark Kohut]

I remember this, I'm still non-dementiatis and recently, in my post RIPing James Hillman, I repeated it.
 
But I thought it clear that it was/is pure speculation and I still know nothing about any real professional
or personal relationship......
 
Except that your observation that Pynchon seems to (mostly; only?) blurb the good books of people
he knows personally adds decent circumstantial evidence that they know each other somehow.
 
And blurbing without knowing somehow seems not in keeping with Pynchon's vision in some ways,
I now would speculate.

The relation was discussed here several times since the late 1990s. 

The idea that Pynchon may had gone to Hillman for treatment was anew formulated
two years ago by a certain Mark Kohut  :-(

"Hillman lived and practiced in California during crucial years of TRP's tim=
e there. He could have met him; been led to him.......

I have wondered, silently, if he .....went....to him professionally."
