Well informed.

>>9797986
go to bed Ruggles

>>9797986
I have V, GR, Vineland, and Mason & Dixon on my shelf. What do I read

>>9798180
Have you read any? Start with V obviously

>>9798180
Vineland.

>>9798180
Against the Gay

>>9798180
If those are what you have, start with V. Otherwise, I'd suggest Inherent Vice.

>>9797986
Father of Dave Eggers

I've only recently gotten into Pynchon, having put him off for years, and I'm really enjoying it. My only complaint would be his Excessive Nominalisation though.

>>9798715
Can't make an omelette without breaking a few Eggers.

Does anyone here think he still has it in him to write another great book?

>>9798888
He's working on one right now.

pls be true ruggy bby

>>9798180
The Crying Of Lot 49 is the best one to begin with. V. maybe, if you don't Lot49 but I didn't like V. that much.

I have Bleeding Edge but I never hear anyone discuss is... what gives?

It's good, but I think there's a kind of disdain for old men writing about young people things and doing it better than the young people could ever hope to. I don't think it will be really appreciated for another decade or two at least.

read Wallace instead. He's far superior

why anyone reads proto-wallacian authors now that we have Wallace is beyond my reasoning capabilities (which are considerable)

>>9799518
Wallace is overrated. His ideas were good sometimes but his writing was often not. Infinite Jest is like a fat man sprinting. He doesn't do a good job at gaining any distance fast.

>>9798881
100% this.
