I liked this one a lot, though I suppose I understood only maybe 40% of it. It taught me a few facts about the world, exposed me to a bit of Pynchonian hilarity with for the most part a lack of what I've often found so infuriating in Pynchonian camp, and was in general a fun read. I imagine I'll read it again one day with supplemental material at my side to help add depth to my reading.
