Well said. This is the reason I love Pynchon's work.

Pynchon's purpose, to replicate in fiction a society he regards as depraved, and to undermine ordinary and common perceptions of that society while masterfully erecting a labyrinthine structure riddled with cul-de-sacs, dead ends, trap doors, fun-house reflections, experimentations with genres and narratives and characters and forms, to undercut and ironize, to draw from and sensational sources and give the lie to the nostalgic revisonists, is achived in this work, AGtD.
