140 or so pages left and I’m starting to think he put all the effort into the first two parts, but made the third part intentionally entropic and dull. Nothing really happens after the second part, for almost 400 pages, for half the novel, then picks up once Enzian starts a-hoppin’ into the plot, whilst the ol’ Pynchmeister musing about nothingness.

>>25638638The first section is the only good one and has by far the best characters. Roger should have been the main guy, although I don't give a fuck about Jessica. The rest of the book is a back and forth between dull moments and retarded sketches, with some gems here and there, like that nigga whose daughter goes to the camps.
