Hi Evrybahdy!

[da kid]

Hi I've been reading the p-list archives for a little while now and admire the ideas of alot of the people here. Entries by Andrew Dinn, John Bailey, Doug Millison among many others are Imho far better than New Yorker or NYT essays for understanding​ TRP's books. I have tried to talk about Pynchon on Reddit but I rarely ever encounter anyone who really wants to dive into the text. So, I am excited to hopefully discuss some of the theories and whatnot that have been bugging me for awhile. Pynchon's ubiqui-themes like:

   Ourobouros through the ring

Magenta and green specifically and his hangup with particular shades pigments in general.

  Holograms/Layers
  His "cartoonish" characterization that Chrissie Wexler refers to in Lineland.

Vibrating to stay invisible (CoC & Inconvenience, the revealing of America in M&D)

  The Eucharist
   The Holy Ghost and the Pentecost

as well as my pet theories about the Hairy Ball Theorem in M&D and Donald Barthelme as Dixon. I could keep rambling on but I'll stop for now.

Anyways, I hope to get to the bottom of all this malarkey and reveal the authors perverse schemes once and for all...

Pete
