How very dull. I'd rather read. But then again it's 12:56am on election
night and our shite government has just been voted in for another 3 years
so maybe I'm biased. Hell, why not stir the pot! I'm PRO MAYNARD! VIVA LA
MAYNARD! Bravo and Bravo and Bravo!!!
Seriously - it just goes to show how much mass media seeps into our pores.
And like I said, I think that a thing like the Maynard affair *is* relevant
in some postmodern way to our reading of Salinger - and I think this is
what Will is implying when he talks about it in his classes (if I may
conjecture here Will). Yet again, she becomes a part of the larger text.
And let's face it - aren't we all just a tad jealous of Maynard in our own
irrational nonsexual ways?
