Reading List, Week of 2017-04-02



What a mammoth masterpiece! Easily my second favorite Pynchon novel (after Gravity's Rainbow, natch). My re-reading was greatly enhanced by two sites that really helped sort out details: the Pynchon Wiki for Against the Day and the Chumps of Choice read-through and discussion. Thanks, all who contributed to those fine sites. Now I just need to figure out what it all meant....
