this t-t-t-t-b-h
but honestly the whole show is about Draper and others vs. the rise of counterculture, which itself is basically one strain of popularized postmodernism, so

Can anyone convince me to like Pynchon?
>>7575343
if you need to be convinced, you are a shit taste faggot.
>>7575403
Whoa, way to bully.

>>7575421
>>7575421

This is the worst.

V. is one of the most fun I've had reading. GR is insane in a way thats charming and surreal. Ordered Mason & Dixon, and have high hopes for it.
Inherent Vice is pretty gud as well.
