  • I read Vineland this summer, mainly because I really liked One Battle After Another, which was partially based on one relatively short part of the book. Plus id never read anything by Pynchon before. As it turns out, Vineland was pretty mid. Managed to finish it though. Likely my last Pynchon book.* - By Ev August 21, 2026 at 05:19:51 PM
