Please add any relevant reviews as they come in. Blog reviews acceptable as long as they're substantial and more than just a few paragraphs.

11/26/06 - New York Times (Sunday book review): "In “Against the Day,” Pynchon’s voice seems uncharacteristically earnest. He interrupts his narrative from time to time to lay down pronouncements that, taken together, probably constitute the fullest elaboration of his philosophy yet seen in print"

11/20/06 - The Modern Word: "for those willing to suspend disbelief and leave the ground behind, Pynchon’s great Inconvenience proves to be one hell of a ride."

11/20/06 - New Yorker: "with this one there is the feeling that the magician has fallen in love with his own stunts, as though Pynchon were composing a pastiche of a Pynchon novel."

11/20/06 - New York Times: "It is a humongous, bloated jigsaw puzzle of a story, pretentious without being provocative, elliptical without being illuminating, complicated without being rewardingly complex."
