It should have gone towards New Sincerity, but Wallace an hero'd and Pynchon and Franzen are still writing books so we're still stuck in postmodernism.

pynchon as a living author is irrelevant and franzen isn't a pomo writer (apart from a few early and irrelevant works). he's realism.

Why is he irrelevant if he's praised so much?
