I just found out from an article that the first American edition of Pynchon's V. was later corrected by Pynchon in time for the British edition and subsequent editions, but many american reprints continued to use the uncorrected version by simple negligence. Does anyone have a list of editions and publishers that have the corrected final version? This would come pretty handy since I'm considering buying a physical copy of this one after having read it in digital format a few years ago.
Also book covers of the corrected version would be the best.

Pynchons my fav writer for sure because my fav thing in books is goofs, gags, jokes and rambunctious behavior, and his books are full to the brim of it. Every novel is like one of those novelty snake cans, you open the book & POP you get a face fulla snakes and you fall back cackling. The mad mind, the crack genius, to do it! and then you think hmmm whats he gonna do next, this trickster, and you pick the book back up and BZZZZZZZZZZ you get a shock and Hahahahahah you've been pranked again by the old pynchmeister, that card. "Did that Pynch?" he says, laughing yukyukyukyuk. Watch him as he shoves a pair of plastic buck teeth right up into his mouth and displays em for you- left, right, center- "you like dese? Do i look handsome???" Pulls out a mirror. "Ah!" Hand to naughty mouth. And you're on your ass again laughing as he snaps his suspenders, exits stage right, and appears again hauling a huge golden gong.

thanks for the bump, asshole.
I know that was pasta, but I have to say I really enjoy Pynchon's prose. The story, tricks, puns and jokes are great but I wouldn't trudge through hours of boring prose to find those gems. I actually enjoy every line of his prose. It may be a little bit dense (not to much) but it's so rich and colorful
