"There are also references to Thomas Pynchon's The Crying of Lot 49 and his
Gravity's Rainbow, an equally enormous experimental novel concerning liberty
and paranoia that was published two years prior to Illuminatus! Wilson
claims his book was already complete by the time he and Shea read Pynchon's
novel (which went on to win several awards), but they then went back and
made some modifications to the text before its final publication to allude
to Pynchon's work."
