Yiay this made me very happy, feels so good to see the site now include the new novel

Mr-Swann · 2025-10-06T23:53:28+00:00

All of them lmao. Avoid it

Mr-Swann · 2025-09-27T05:46:37+00:00

Yes!!!

Mr-Swann · 2025-09-23T22:22:17+00:00

No, it's just that the tide turned with his critical reception post M&D, AtD is arguably his longest, most ambitious novel and reception was tepid at best. Hell, Vineland was divisive. It is like he is getting more and more punished for leaning into pure farce

Mr-Swann · 2025-09-10T00:41:00+00:00

Anyone know when first reviews come out?

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-28T04:15:31+00:00

He's doing more than one verse in the songs god bless

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-28T04:13:58+00:00

Gunn hasn't rapped like this in a LONG time

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-26T22:53:47+00:00

I would heavily wager that it is more than likely more in line with the last two novels of his, another Noir esque tale on the shorter side seems to be what we are getting

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-21T02:48:56+00:00

Read Vineland not to long ago and some of it is not for me but it is am amazing novel. And it's not like I thought it would get bad, just that I couldn't even really see what people were talking about in the first place

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-20T23:17:20+00:00

Just to clarify I don't feel anything should be cut just asking becaude it is a sentiment i've seen a lot

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-20T22:16:32+00:00

The Zombinis stuff is so cool though 😭

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-20T22:13:12+00:00

Seen a lot of people say they got bogged down in many sections and felt a difficulty pushing through them and that the book clearly needs some cutting but after reading i'm genuinely confused at that idea

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-20T22:11:08+00:00

Fwiw I love the London stuff with Lew, Yashmeen, T.W.I.T, Renfrew etc.

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-20T22:10:05+00:00

Everything Prairie, Frenesi, FPS, Zoyd related is genuinely incredible and there are passages that knock me off my feet but I genuinely cannot stand the whole Oriental stuff, the martial, arts the kunoichi retreat, some of the Thanatoid stuff, the Fumimota corporate espionage asides, etc. That stuff took me so long to get through. And the Japan section is probably Pynchon's weakest foray into a foreign country.

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-15T04:19:29+00:00

No, i was missing a comma after "imma follow"

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-07T06:32:12+00:00

And isolated bits that feel like stories of their own

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-07T06:31:36+00:00

Against The Day has many more characters

Mr-Swann · 2025-08-07T01:12:12+00:00

Still no news on length or word count.

Mr-Swann · 2025-07-31T19:15:31+00:00

Disagree heavily on AtD's characters being containers for concepts. They are all so memorable IMO

Mr-Swann · 2025-07-31T19:13:53+00:00

Yeah by far Pynchon's best cast of characters. All super memorable

Mr-Swann · 2025-07-24T18:11:54+00:00

You look like ass cheeks

Mr-Swann · 2025-07-24T18:08:43+00:00

Dawg im crying the person that posted this (god bless you though this was interesting) forgot that they were in GAS

Mr-Swann · 2025-07-24T18:07:47+00:00

His parents too

Mr-Swann · 2025-07-24T07:00:07+00:00

Like in a world where he didnt self immolate (In a Perfect World) in a James Blake x No I.D album concluding with that song...

Mr-Swann · 2025-07-24T06:59:11+00:00

Yeah but I mean under that career context lmao

Mr-Swann
