I was wondering if someone can recommend me what to read after Lot 49. From
all of Pynchon's stuff that I havent read yet, Mason & Dixon seems the most
appealing, but I've read reveiws that TRP alludes alot to his previous
novels, so I was wondering if reading M&D now will ruin the desired
pynchonian effect. From what I've heard, Gravity's rainbow sounds like
losing ones anal virginity with Dirk Diggler, but I found Lot 49 to be
acceptable so I'm assuming that it'll be like that just longer (true?).
Anyway, please tell me whats a good "next step" after Lot49, and does anyone
recommend going through the books in any kind of chronological order because
of the references.
yours. Saud.
