In 2012, Lee Konstantinou started an online reading group called #OccupyGaddis to discuss William Gaddis’s novel, J R. I argue that #OccupyGaddis rethinks Gaddis’s cynicism toward communication technologies and reimagines the novel as a cultural study of how to write and negotiate (fragmented) identities in the current global, media-dominated culture
