Should I read Gravity's rainbow

>projecting your own limitations and failures onto others and giving up on improving yourself and thinking this is enlightened
>t."i'm redpilled"

Neo: What are you trying to tell me? That I can kill politicians?
Morpheus: No, Neo. I’m trying to tell you that when you’re ready, you won’t have to.

>I am tolerant and progressive
>t.darius prepper

Why should I read those first and is his other books worth checking out?

can someone just tell me what happen to slothrop

It was the first Pynchon I ever read and it was difficult but I loved it. No problem with jumping right in.

Seriously, Against the Day is wonderful. Funniest book i've ever read

>thinks NPC doesn't include the people using it exclusively for partisan politics on popular social media
>t.open minded

>NPC

holy shit, shut the fuck up

You evidently haven't read A Confederacy of Dunces

No, just have a banana

>muh wingcucks
>t.centrist faggot
Now truly, if DFW be the reddit of Yea Forums, then it shall also hold true as one astute user has posited, that Pynchon is the capeshit.

If you read it with the companion (it's literally just annotations on the various references), pic related, you can just jump right in and it will tell you when you need to look into something further to understand what's going on.

>Should I read Gravitys rainbow?
Yes.
>If so can jump right in to it or do I have to read a couple of books just to understand it?
Reading Pynchon's earlier fiction will not actually prepare you for Gravity's Rainbow. As for the countless allusions, you have the Internet, make good use of it. GR is an extremely dense and chaotic book and the most important factor for understanding it is rereading, not reading other books or doing exaggerated amounts of research.

Is this meme book still being pushed?
When you prep treyshaun, you are literally prepping yourself to read pynchon

i honestly disagree. its a great read but gravitys rainbow is slightly more classic. some of the more off the wall parts are unmatched in literature.

Im just so tired of overly bleak lit, i want some shit with some sunshine and Against the Day has some of that in it

>Has no idea what my view point is but replaces any sense of self in exchange for membership in a group that can easily be accused of the very thing it asserts it's supposed opposition of doing and must defend it at any cost because that is what the programing codes for in order to maintain proper functioning.
>t.I will call him a sissy that will show him!

>has no idea
Oh, but I do. You're a nigger

against the day is arguably even more bleak.

I started with it but Against the Day, Mason and Dixon are better.

>is unable to form an argument
>t.I will call him a word I would never dare say to an actual black person in real life

Gee it sure is reddit in here

no just jump right in. its hard because the writing style is hard, im almost thru part 1 and there havent been any obscure references. he references freaking hansel and gretel.

even the science parts are explained as they are presented
