Has anyone ever read Hugh Kenner's novel? (I haven't.)

I could swear I have seen it mentioned in multiple articles but can't find it now. How could I make this up?!

Kenner did write a (deliberately bad) poem under the name Maximilian Slump which he included in The Art of Poetry for pedagogical reasons. And there are buried lyrics in the text of various books.
