I remember 1972. I remember Mumbo Jumbo. In 1973, Pynchon told us where all those Masonic Mysteries came from... We should listen...
But beware Hassan-e-Sabbah and his gang of Assassins! Our discussions should be encrypted, or perhaps we agree on a set on intermediaries, go off the grid, and out into the desert, the Taklamakan desert, the place of no return, under the protection of the descendants of Tamerlane...
But in all honesty, yes I would indeed be all for a group read of Ishmael Reed, perhaps start with Mumbo Jumbo?
I cede the floor to the committee!
