Today we join together in joyful, ebullient remembrance. The greatest American writer of all time. Bob of the jolly automata and jerry-rigged comic hostilities. He of the panoply of fables and the sort of lewd, acrobatic sex that demands a fourth X.
Robert Coover
February 4th, 1932 - October 5th, 2024
92 is a classy and right proper age at which
to doff cap and bow out.
Maybe he was paying homage to
a certain Thomas McGuane novel,
or maybe nobody knows what's happening
right as fate snowplows they ass.
