Speaking of Pynchon, I'm about 800 pages into Against the Day and my motivation to read it has ranked. I am loving determined to finish it and I'm trying to read at least 10 pages a day but it's going to take me a month at this rate. This is probably the longest single story I've ever read and keeping track of the 25 simultaneous plot threads among the mathematical terminology and space-time bending is daunting the hell out of me even though I have enjoyed most of this novel.

You're at the Eastern Europe and Central Asia parts, right? I can't imagine getting bored there, those are fantastic.

Congratulations, you must be so proud. Did you imagine what everything looked like or had you already imagined? Or you had to imagine what everything looked like. Grown-ups can do grammar.

If a book ever so much as suggests in a sort of direct manner what its themes are it doesn't belong in this thread for smart grownups.
