Why should things be easy to understand?

I just finished The Crying of Lot 49 and I really liked it. Which of Pynchon's books should I read next?

am i a storytelling or not?

We are all --all but one, ofcourse-- not Bill Murray.

We can be sure of this.

However, only one is not-Bill Murray.

Who is not-Bill Murray?

Post your arguments/reasoning too.

>tfw Bol.com has Gravity's Rainbow listed as a classic children's book

Did a webshop just call me a pleb?

>A screaming comes across the sky.

I implore you to find a better opening sentence.

ITT: We make up porn-adaptation titles of books. None of that "Famous book: XXX parody" shit please.

As I lay Cumming

How old do you think the youngest person to have read and (somewhat) understood Pynchon is/was?

My gues would be around 25.
