Re: 📄 "Thomas Pynchon, High Theory, and the Legacy of the Long Sixties" by David Letzler

[Mark Thibodeau]

I hope you didn't take my comment as snide or insulting. I meant only to
illuminate the comments of the author to whom you were referring, and not
you, yourself, my friend.

I have this "thing", you see, about our civilizational clock being reset
the moment that all those infamous Hiroshima clocks stopped, at 8:15 AM on
August 6, 1945.

That's when most, if not all, of the previous rules of the game... became
utter nonsense.

Yours,
yer old pal Jerky
aka Mark T.
