I haven’t read it. I’m going by what I’ve been told. No other American novel of that generation is as revered.

Oh.

I see.

I like ambitious literature, and I likes some of his style in having footnotes. I was impressed by his knowledge of pharmacology he put forth in the foot notes.

But the story and world he was presenting did not do any thing to make me interested.

This book, and Gravity’s Rainbow, were not Ulysses, which is a great book.
