What am I in for Pinch bros? I already got filtered by GR about a year back, but I read some excerpts here on /lit/ recently and something clicked with his style, so I am trying again with Bleeding Edge. What is your one sentence pitch for the book?

Pynchon is such a fucking postmodernist le quirky hack it's not even funny

Pynchon is a cryptojew himself. Also he should stick to the past instead of copying Wiliam Gibson.

Bleeding Edge is a historical novel.

Bleeding Edge is a metaphor for a menstruating vagina's vulva as a phallic agent.

By that logic every novel ever written is historical.

That shit is hilarious. That's exactly why I feel like I can give Pynchon another chance now. The excerpts I mentioned were from GR, the part where Slothrup is with that one chick and she starts doing judo and then they fuck. I think the first time I tried reading GR I didn't realize how funny it actually is. He is a funny guy.

What would Thomas Pynchon say about the Finnish military?
