You don't need to read V.
>>23319852Why is that?
>>23320007It's juvenalia
>>23320007Don't listen to that retard. He's obsessed and keeps misspelling that word.
Crying of Lot 49 is the easiest. Inherent Vice is most fun. Gravity's Rainbow is most satisfying.
>>23319437Read Slow Learner. Then read V. and see how he recycled the ideas from the short stories to create a novel. It's the most intimate you'll ever get with him.
From the beginning of his bibliography like you would any other artist
>>23320603Prove me wrong
>>23319437>>23319455pynchon, gaddis and wallace are the most obvious midwit blow horns >look everyone, I'm reading difficult, girthy post modernism! just read books that resonate with you by how you feel and what you're going through.
>>23322129If pynchon doesn't resonate with you you're dead inside
>>23322129pynchon resonates with me, isn't very difficult, and several of his novels are short. you sound like a presumptuous, shallow faggot
>>23322129Col49 (only Pynchon I've read) resonated heavy with me, what's wrong with postmodernism it's literally just people trying new things, at least they take risks and aren't scared of being seen as pompous intellectuals by faggot retards, imo though I don't see any of them holding a candle to Calvino, he's alot more pertinent to things that matter instead of abstractions
