Thomas Pynchon’s “Inherent Vice” Out Next Summer
Well that was quick, wasn’t it? Via Scott Esposito, I see that Pynchon has a new novel coming out next August (are we over our Against the Day hangover yet?). It’s a relatively slim 416 pages and sounds more like Elmore Leonard (perhaps) than Pynchon, but that’s no surprise.

Such a long time since I have read any Muldoon. I will look for that WZ poem. Thanks.

I love Ish (not least for his continued advocacy for children of war around the world) and Open Book TV. And of course Madiba is always great. I think I could have done with fewer mystical echoing flutes-of-sadness though.
About the ICC: such an important struggle, and so anathema to the idea of American Exceptionalism we are all raised on. That, along with the debate over humanitarian intervention, look to be the defining international issues of our time exactly because they cannot be reduced to simple dichotomies, or even unambiguous moral stances. By which I mean to say I’m looking forward to the film.
