So does Punchhim just not know when to use "a" and when "an", or does he do it intentionally in Inherent Vice?

Here's an interesting thought: if the Pynchonian layers of reality are slowly peeled away to form ghosts, then does that mean our lives are infinite?

Pynchon question thread #9120831
So I've read TCoL49, and I've heard good things about both V and Mason & Dixon
I don't necessarily need to start with the most entry-level one, I'm a big boy, but what's /lit/'s official power ranking of the two? Any likelihood of greater enjoyment in reading one or the other first?

Is there anything he can't do?

Seriously though, while reading V. I was amazed at the sheer amount of knowledge he crammed into it at 26. It felt like he had lived in all those places for like 5 years. I'm looking forward to reading GR, even though it'll probably go over my head

Greatest living American novelist? For me it's gotta be between Pynchon and McCarthy and I favor Pynchon.
