N. Katherine Hayles speaks of Godel's (sorry, no umlaut) Theorem in her 
THE COSMIC WEB:  SCIENTIFIC FIELD MODLES AND LITERARY STRATEGIES IN THE 
20TH CENTURY.  She speaks of postmodern literature, generally.  It's 
interesting.  I've used a bit of her arugment to discuss BEckett's THREE 
NOVELS, but have never, I think, applied it to Pynchon.

Good luck.
