This has gotten me thinking about how COL49 and BE speak to each other
in very subtle and interesting ways. Or how the author of the latter
is thinking about the author of the former, perhaps. I don't think
Pynchon would write COL49 today, or at least wouldn't end it the way
he did.

Both books have contemporary settings, are under 500 pages and I guess are going to be considered "minor" works.
