You anons trying to force the whole burgerpunk meme are kind of sad. If there is such a thing as proto burgerpunk it would be Twain.

Burgerpunk doesn't actually exist in literature. Somebody wrote a pretty spot on article about it in the new lit magazine

Dunno the memes about burger punk or whatever, but this is an interesting piece of early ecocriticism. It’s weak in terms of Pynchon overall but it’s good

Vineland is the only Pynchon I've read and I hated it, are all his books this annoying?

They don't all have 50 page ninja segments to interrupt the story of the characters you care about but they do all have silly names and most of them have moments where he left one hand on the keyboard during his wank break.
