Some of the best writing I’ve ever read. Maybe I smoked too much weed every day for 6 years but it really felt like Pynchon had managed to capture a stoner’s daze in prose. Or maybe that’s a side effect of all the psychedelics. Who knows man. Fantastic little mystery/detective story, that isn’t reallly about any of that. It’s also one of the funniest books I’ve ever read.
Not what I was in the mood for. May revisit

A pesar de las críticas que ha recibido esta novela por parte de críticos medio snobs, Inherent vice me pareció un libro genial. Divertido, complejo, coloquial, laberíntico.
“May we trust that this blessed ship is bound for some better shore, some undrowned Lemuria, risen and redeemed, where the American fate, mercifully, failed to transpire…”
