M&D preambulatory profferings

> Like you said, and I totally agree,    "Pynchon is consistently subversive of historical and political notions of "belonging" to categories and institutions, consistently upending our views of history's cusps and transitions and frontiers.”   (That’s one of the things I thoroughly enjoy about reading him.)

An excellent discussion on this topic all round.

A question: if Pynchon is subverting the  historical and political
notions of belonging, who holds the notions he subverts?
