Just finished listening to The Crying of Lot 49. Gotta say I'm glad it was an audiobook because such a rambling, kaleidoscopic tale might've been harder to absorb from the printed page.
With that said, I find Thomas Pynchon a quirky, intriguing author somewhere between William S. Burroughs and maybe Tim Dorsey, and all this from a story copyrighted in 1965.
So, you Pynchon fans, what should be my next one by the same author, or maybe someone similar (if there is such an animal)?
