Bleeding Edge is on Amazon

[Lemuel Underwing]

Is Pynchon really one for Symbols, now? I'm not so sure... at his best he
blurs the line, sends the symbols scattering and makes a mockery of our
Prized Post-Modern interps.

Can't wait for the book, tho', I am quite alright whatever it is, I will
read it and enjoy it cause dear Uncle P. wrote it.
