I agree ......I might have said that but Ann seems,consistent to me w her two choices. In her judgments, she gives a lot of weight to a sustained stylistic breakthrough as part of their greatness. In both cases, they sorta asserted a new but subtle plain style against the prevailing
Overly refined style of the times. She sez.

I don't think Kerouac is best then either if it isn't Pynchon and I'd vote for him.
