Vivek’s Notes
"And the last one of my Pynchon reads, and I do not think I will read anything else by him." Set in 1932, it centers on a Milwaukee private investigator set adrift in Hungary while tracking the heiress to a Wisconsin cheese fortune. "I think I could've been allergic to cheese after this. Thank God, he is a recluse."
