Thomas Ruggles Pynchon, Jr. is an American writer based in New York City, noted for his dense and complex works of fiction. Hailing from Long Island, Pynchon spent two years in the United States Navy and earned an English degree from Cornell University. After publishing several short stories in the late 1950s and early 1960s, he began composing the novels for which he is best known today: V. (1963), The Crying of Lot 49 (1966), Gravity's Rainbow (1973), Vineland (1990), Mason & Dixon (1997), and Against the Day (2006).
Pynchon is regarded by many readers and critics as one of the finest contemporary authors. He is a MacArthur Fellow and a recipient of the National Book Award, and is regularly cited as a contender for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Both his fiction and non-fiction writings encompass a vast array of subject matter, styles, and themes, including (but not limited to) the fields of history, science and mathematics. Pynchon is also known for his avoidance of personal publicity: very few photographs of him have ever been published, and rumours about his location and identity have been circulated since the 1960's.
Suffused with rich satire, chaotic brilliance, verbal turbulence and wild humor, The Crying of Lot 49 opens as Oedipa Maas discovers that she has been made executrix of a former lover's estate. The performance of her duties sets her on a strange trail of detection, in which bizarre characters crowd in to help or confuse her. But gradually, death, drugs, madness and marriage combine to leave Oedipa in isolation on the threshold of revelation, awaiting the Crying of Lot 49.

評分這是第二次嘗試品欽,傢裏還躺著一本中學時買瞭沒能讀完的灰色的一本《葡萄園》。 覺得很遺憾,即使是第二次接觸品欽,還是入門級的拍賣,我都不能很好地抓住和理解。閱讀體驗很有意思,是一種隨時隨地容易渙散失神,但又難免會被拉迴來反復琢磨的過程,本質是摺磨人的,但竟然...

評分深夜匆匆翻完,不在乎那些繁復長句,不在意情緒,隻是拼命翻到最後一頁,齣現那句標題“拍賣第四十九批”。哦,一點不是我想象的故事,一點不是,我就像女主一樣,麵對著無法睡著的黑夜,一片過度混亂的信息與過度曝光的空白。 是一個巨大騙局嗎,隻是拿來愚弄我的?這種想法會...
