Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The highly original satire about Oedipa Maas, a woman who finds herself enmeshed in a worldwide conspiracy, meets some extremely interesting characters, and attains a not inconsiderable amount of self knowledge.
Review:
"Mr. Pynchon's satirical eye doesn't miss a thing, including rock 'n roll singers right wing extremists, and the general subculture of Southern California." Library Journal
Review:
"A puzzle, an intrigue, a literary and historical tour de force with a strongly European flavor." San Francisco Examiner
Review:
"The work of a virtuoso with prose...akin to that of Joyce's Ulysses." Chicago Tribune
Review:
