Chabon mentions Pynchon

[Bekah]

Thank you!   I've heard of Nicola Barker  but I don't think I've read anything by her  - although she's got plenty out there.  Darkmans andThe  Yips were quite well received - Darkmans on the short list for the Man Booker in 2007 and  The Yips for the long list 2012.   They and The Burley Cross Post Box Theft (2010) are now on my wish list at Amazon.   I'll have to pick one  - (sigh).
