Interview from early '97 w/The Minnesota Daily.

Topics include irony, television, satire.
Lengthy criticism (and praise) of Pynchon.
Interviewer asks (I paraphrase): Are you bugged that on all your books there's blurbs comparing you to Pynchon?

Don Dellilo, Joseph McElroy, Cynthia Ozick, Gilbert Sorrentino, William Gaddis, "Bill Vollmann," Mark Leyner, Dostoyevski & others get coverage too.

Great interview. But now I've got to check out some Ozick!
