The Crying of Lot 49 Group Read 2024

[David Morris]

Don’t you mean “potsman?”

I think you’re on to something. That does sound like a Pynchon twist.  And
if it’s included in what Oed discovers to be REAL (no quotes), then it’s
safe to conjecture that her discovery is a microcosm of “source” REAL.  The
Root of Reality.
