>The National Enquirer recently stalked Pynchon for six months
What the fuck? Why do they stalk an old paranoiac? The journalists are fulfilling Pynchon's own prophetic, Orwellian nightmares about surveillance.

The national enquirer is a trashy tabloid.

>KIPEN:Spent time at the Griffith Observatory, have you? By the way, your fondness inLot 49for the Raymond Chandler tradition really comes across. Do you still take an interest in L.A. writing? I hope you don’t mind if I recommend a terrific new book on the subject? I happen to have a copy here.
