Where I write whatever the hell I want.

Inherent Vice

I don’t watch many movies, but this

It’s apparently based on a Pynchon novel. Haven’t read it. I loved The Crying of Lot 49, and when I finished it I decided to try more Pynchon. I picked up a copy of Against the Day in an airport and just could not slog through it. So I haven’t tried Pynchon since.

Someone just mentioned though that they love all of Pynchon’s work except for not being able to get through Against the Day. So I guess I just picked an unfortunate example to try. Maybe I’ll read this one before seeing the movie.
