On no longer recommending Gravity's Rainbow to readers

[John Bailey]

Director Rian Johnson (Looper, The Last Jedi) recently tweeted a
question: "What’s the book you love that you’ve stopped recommending
to people?"

He followed up with: "Mine is Gravity’s Rainbow - I’ve come to accept
that it’s impossible to recommend it without sounding like an asshole,
and I’m a freak for loving it."

There's lots of Pynchon love in the ensuing conversation but I like
the initial question. If anyone wants to supply their own, go nuts.
