From Thomas Pynchon, an author we expect to take decadelong
breaks, now emerges his second novel in three years. The pace
does him good: Inherent Vice, besides being the literary giant’s
most accessible work, is the kind of confident, relaxed effort that
might signal a golden age ahead. Pynchon has produced a
pungently stoned SoCal detective mystery, as laid-back as its
hero, Larry “Doc” Sportello, a joint-toking, beach-town–dwelling
private investigator with a strong suspicion that his psychedelic
’60s are ending. . .
