The man who boasts he has "no writing heroes" confesses:
> Ever since I ran into a used copy of V., I became a total fan of
> Pynchon.
Ooooh, a total fan!
So, he's not a writing hero, but you're a "total fan"?
But how total? Like my daughter and the Jonas Brothers?
Wow.
Do you ever read what you write, or just not expect us to?
And while you're at it, how about explaining how "those guys (at the
New York Times) don't know anything about books."
Not occasionally wrong about a book, or possessing the temerity to
disagree with you (hard to believe, isn't it?), but they actually know
nothing at all about books?
Nothing at all, in covering over a century of English-language
literature? Not one of them in all those years knows anything?
Wow.
