Inherent Vice review in the Telegraph, UK

[Robin Landseadel]

Tim Martin weighs in:

. . . Unlike much of Pynchon’s other work, however, Inherent Vice  
wears its learning lightly, intermixing it with dialogue that zings,  
jokes that never overstay their welcome and a stream of hilariously  
bad puns and wickedly acute observations. Who would have thought it?  
One of America’s most wilful and obscure writers has produced the most  
enjoyable beach read of the summer.
