Bet you will like Tanner, he's was one of the best. If you read page 86 in his last book (the essay on Melville's C-M) you are sure to have a good laugh. How does one account for the pessimistic and conservative influence of Henry Adams on TRP? I bet you have read all the tales Tanner deal with in the book, so that's a good start. Seeing Pynchon next to Hawthorne, Adams, Twain, Irving Delillo, Emerson, Melville, James Willy and Henry), just majes my day.
