Has Thomas Pynchon passed away, or is the twitter feed just playing tricks on me?
So my favorite living writer is dead. Is this true?
Rest, if possible, in peace.
Okay, this late breaking word just in that the Thomas Pynchon news may not be true because it was posted by a faux Delillo tweeter.
I'll leave you then, tentatively, with life, even more so, for TP.
In summary, let's plagiarize it as death on the installment plan but with 30% more life and heightened anticipation installed free of charge.
On the death topic, more than ever, we're all copycat criminals, no?
Alex Kudera’s award-winning novel, Fight for Your Long Day (Atticus Books), was drafted in a walk-in closet during a summer in Seoul, South Korea. Auggie’s Revenge (Beating Windward Press) is his second novel. His numerous short stories include “Frade Killed Ellen” (Dutch Kills Press), “Bombing from Above” (Heavy Feather Review), and “A Thanksgiving” (Eclectica Magazine).
