Pynchon's papers are rather small compared to Cormac (98 boxes); Gaddis
(132 boxes) and Delillo (151 boxes). I'm rather surprised he left anything.
figured he'd burn it all. but maybe the price was too good to be true.
I visited the Huntington with Jeff Baker more than 20 yrs ago. it is a
lovely place
