in a review of middle c, this guy is mentioned in the same sentence

Gass and Pynchon are shit

It's fucking John Barth. Fuck off, holy shit mate. By the context you have given and a cursory look at his novels should have brought you around this time to starting his novel about pirate rape, not sitting there waiting for me to type out a reply to tell you that you should have figured out for yourself, that if you like gass and pynchon and the pomostuds of yesteryear, you should probably start reading about pirate rape (the Sot-Weed Factor).

you okay?

If Gass and Pynchon are good, it follows that Barth is good too, pretty much.

>>9269241
I guess, but people as stupid as the OP are just infuriating, and I don't fancy myself a pet.

>>9269279
don't let it get to you

I've only read The Sot-Weed Factor. It was one of those books that I could tell was great and a classic but I didn't completely like it.

>>9269247
is that a guess based on the above quote from a review? or you know that from experience?

>>9269121
Barth is funny as fuck. Gaddis, too.
