He probably wouldn't care. He already knew the reason they deny him the prize was bulshit so that wouldn't surprise him.
Borges didin't give a fuck.

Not Borges, at least.
Listen to some of his interviews and he´s alwys downplaying the quality of his work and rejecting any praise. He was very humble.

>I found circles in the ruins, therefore, i shall call them, The Circular Ruins.
Damn Borges you crazy.

Okay, at this point I'm pretty sure you actually like Wright, and are roleplaying an obnoxious anti-Wright shitposter to try and exploit /sffg/'s contrarian nature and generate a surge of popularity for him.

This is how I can always tell when someone's a mindless DFWdrone crusading against this perceived ironist.

Pynchon makes verrrrry little use of irony, and nothing he writes carries an ironic message.

You answered your own question, pop science is made to make the subject closer to a layman understanding, but if you want the real shit you have to read the papers.

>You will never write as wasted as Borges
i mean, just look at his eyes! the man was fucked!
