‘Crying of Lot 49’, Written by Thomas Pynchon
The highly original satire about Oedipa Maas, a woman who finds herself enmeshed in a worldwide conspiracy, meets some extremely interesting characters, and attains a not inconsiderable amount of self-knowledge.
“The comedy crackles, the puns pop, the satire explodes” – NEW YORK TIMES
“The work of a virtuoso with prose…His intricate symbolic order is akin to that of Joyce’s Ulysses.” – CHICAGO THRIBUNE
“A puzzle, an intrigue, a literary and historical tour de force with a strongly European flavor.” – SAN FRANCISCO EXAMINER
“Mr. Pynchon’s satirical eye doesn’t miss a thing, including rock ‘n’ roll singers, right-wing extremists, and the general subculture of Southern California.” – LIBRARY JOURNAL
THOMAS PYNCHON was born in 1937. His books include The Crying of Lot 49, V., Gravity’s Rainbow, Vineland, and Mason & Dixon.
