When the fuck does this book get good?

When the fuck does this book get good?

I'm a few chapters in and it's awful. Why did you guys tell me to read this book?

It gets good from the get-go!

Are you sure we're talking about the same book? because the chapter where she watches a movie in a motel with the lawyer is cringe and boring.

But think this way OP, you'll be able to boast about reading it after you finish it. That's the pleasure.

Do girls like a man who's read pynchon? because if I don't get some pussy outta this it's not worth it.
I can see how it might have been considered funny in the 1950's when he wrote it but not by today's standards. The "humor" in this book reminds me of some old timey radio show like Prairie Home Companion.

I thought that was pretty endearing and funny. But I was talking about Mucho Maas' numerous moral reservations, had me hooked right away. Different strokes for different folks, though, I guess!

Who boasts about reading The Crying of Lot 49?

It is just a intel agent confessing his knowledge of operation paperclip and and MK Ultra amid a sea of pop culture parody. More interesting for its veiled references to real world events than as an actual narrative.

Not him, but Bugs Bunny is aces. As humor and and as a model for the life well-lived.

I will admit that part was pretty funny.

Stick with it to the end, baby. It's a short book, and once you get knee-deep in the Trystero stuff, it'll get fun. Especially if you're paranoid in real life.

Cringe AND boring?

We write what we know user, we write what we know.

it's pretty great right away, but when she sees the painting at the flea market and starts crying, and her tears fill up her sunglasses

breathless

Pynchon is part of the Brady Bunch generation and his books are about as funny as that shitty ass show

I'm about halfway through and was really not enjoying it at first. I found it really frustrating and the characters didn't seem to have much psychological depth. But something clicked and once I started just reveling in Pynchon's ability to craft sentences and stopped expecting the book to like, teach me something or get emotionally vulnerable then I started enjoying it a lot more. The prose really is immaculate but sometimes I have to get high to have it really hit me.

Why would anyone waste time reading pinecone

Keep reading, it gets good at The Courier's Tragedy.

Never. In fact, it only gets worse. Just wait until you find out how it ends. Cemented Pynch as a pseud in my mind with no eye for aesthetic, and his only talent being distinguishable prose.

>muh title meme xDDDDD
Your brain is actually ruined from using Yea Forums. Your whine is an extrapolation of a cut-away gag from fucking family guy about peter watching movies. You're a moron dude. I hope you die tomorrow, weak willed little bitch.

>A woman sits down in a restaurant. She orders a signified. The waiter brings her a signifier. When she notices the error she calls for the waiter and points it out. He apologizes and takes the plate back to the kitchen and then brings a new one. The woman thanks him but after he's left she notices that instead of bringing her her signified he's brought her seven signifiers. Perplexed she once again calls for the waiter. The waiter again apologizes – but will offer no explanation for the strange mishap – and takes the signifiers back to the kitchen. The woman then cries as she sees the whole cooking staff come out of the kitchen carrying 49 signifiers.

OH MAN WAIT UNTIL YOU WATCH THE MOVIE COOL HAND LUKE BECAUSE HIS NAME IS LUKE AND THEY SAY LUKE AND COOL HAND A COUPLE OF TIMES IN THE MOVIE OMG SUCH HACKWORD XDDD
