"A puzzle, an intrigue, a literary and historical tour de force with a strongly European flavor." - San Francisco Examiner
"Mr. Pynchon's satirical eye doesn't miss a thing including rock n' roll singers, rightwing extremists and the general subculture of Southern California... Readers interested in something new and different will find good reading well done here." -Library Journal
"The work of a virtuoso with prose... His intricate symbolic order [is] akin to that of Joyce's Ulysses." - Chicago Tribune
If I was cultured enough I'd probably write the same things as these reviewers. Since I'm not, I'd just describe it in one word as confusing and brilliant. I enjoyed it very much and and was tempted not to post it on PBS except that someone else may also enjoy it too if they order it.
