One major theme (outta Pynchon), I think, can be stated this way:
*The Master *is mostly about that post-war charisma--Hoffman as
Master---that Pynchon
warned about at the end of GR.
A--and, all that "connected in history" together between Phoenix and
Hoffman might be
Anderson's take on paranoia (outta GR).....
And all of Phoenix's self-destructiveness and cluelessness, his self-dammed
erotic drive--- is--tentatively anyway?--overcome in the last scene. ??
