"Crying" is short and funny and full of good ideas. GR has more of the same but is very hard. V is peculiar, Vineland is dumb, M&D is unrewarding. Slow Learner is very uneven.

Ditto on "The Crying of Lot 49," but I found "Mason & Dixon" quite rewarding. Nonetheless, for a general reader it suffers from length and density.

Talk about logorrhea!
I finished the book, but I'm too exhausted to tell you about it.
