No question that PGW was the greatest prose stylist of the 20th century. Makes sense, from his biography: every morning, 6 days a week, year after year for decades, he would sit down and churn out some 10-20-30 pages of new or edited prose, without fail. Much of it ineffable lightness, some of it a bit clunky, but on the whole an incredible body of work. Here, in a somewhat explaining-the-joke kind of criticism, is still some pretty rummy stuff about Plum: http://www.uni-tuebingen.de/uni/nec/leimberg1312.htm http://www.uni-tuebingen.de/uni/nec/leimberg1312.htm He had a rather sad life, but he was a great artist.
