I tried this and thought it was utter garbage. It's not just bad, it's bad in a way that makes you suspect his more esteemed works are also, at their core — once you get past all the verbal pyrotechnics and labyrinthine game-playing — worthless.

I don't think it's that random. I enjoyed it. Maybe you need a history lesson.

It's about writing GR. If you knew the author's history it's rather poignant.

nah GR and M&D are two of the greatest works of literature ever generated. Even his plebshit like Vineland is still a cut above

Pynchon LITERALLY invented that aesthetic.

>> No.18551740

>>18551714
Gotta agree with this.
M&D is truly one of the best books ever written, but I’m reading Vineland now, and it’s pretty pedestrian anti-Reagan hippies lament bullshit. Politics in nivels should be so conceptual and broad there ought to be no need to mention the names of any temporary elected officials, otherwise it just comes off as a butthurt, imo

He was not me, but I was comparing it more to in M&D how one of the points is obviously the king was shit, but you don’t hear the guys name every other chapter.

I could see why someone would think that, but once you kinda see that most of the randomness is actually very meaningful, sometimes his sense of humor just seems sort of crude and distasteful.
but that's sort of his thing, the low and high brow coming together.
but it's not just one thing, and to call it "random" would be inaccurate.

it was underwhelming for me with lots of unneccesary crap that didnt tie in or was engagingly fleshed out on their own but it wasnt random. i can guarantee that you missed out on main themes and the general feel

The voice he does for the Simpsons bit is totally different. I feel like he's the type of autist who would intentionally put on a silly accent for these things so nobody would ever get to hear his "real" voice.
