It's a good intro to maximalist literature

It’s one of the worst maximalist novels. Read The Recognitions or Gravity’s Rainbow instead if you haven’t yet.

Just because it isn't as good doesn't mean it isn't a good introduction

Why do you think that the recognitions is a good book?

>The Gaddisfag is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a pseud, dilettante, fraud, aesthete, it all runs of him like water off a raincoat. But ask him to explain the merit of The Recognitions and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: 'I've been found out.'"
