First Reading of GR

[Toby Levy]

Laura,

You are correct.

However none of us reds only Pynchon. All of the authors mentioned by others
in this thread in no way approximate "the magnitude of Tom's prose style" as
Luis put it.

One contemporary author, though, to my way of thinking writes intensely
beautiful prose that Luis might enjoy looking into: David Mitchell (any of
his five or six novels).
