We Await Springfield's Tristero Empire

Via Unfogged: Reclusive novelist Thomas Pynchon, author of The Crying of Lot 49 (one of my favorite books) will appear on an upcoming episode of The Simpsons. Pynchon has, of course, resisted book signings, television and radio interviews, and publicity photos, so it's interesting to see him "appear" on an episode of The Simpsons. True to form, Pynchon's animated image will be wearing a paper bag over his head. That's one episode I'll make sure to watch.
