In Procrastination Nation
This is great. I don't even know what it is.
Also: Surely Jonathan Franzen's The Corrections should be among the runners-up on that Times best-novel list?

Ha, I will not offer my opinion on The Corrections here! But . . . given the *type* of book that made it onto the list — the panoramic, way-we-live-now-ish novel — it seems a good fit.
I just bought THE TUNNEL via Amazon a couple weeks ago! It will be my reward for finishing (writing) my own novel.
(Aren't I FUN?)
I was actually thinking that Gaddis's (not Gass's) A FROLIC OF HIS OWN would have been a fun choice — I wonder if any of the NYT judges nominated it?
Final candidate: THE SLEEPING FATHER, by Matthew Sharpe
Come on DIZZYHEADS! Let's hear your nominees!
