Mason and Dixon is one to try. Once you get into the rhythm of the wonderful language it's amazing. I once asked Salman Rushdie what Pynchon was like, he told me "He knows a lot of TV trivia." Maybe that will help you with GV!
Aye, I too was frequently lost, and still am in both V. and Gravity's Rainbow, I too reread frequently, including over the years, but I too, like you, realized I was having a special and unique experience...the wordplay alone is delightful, even with all the missing information. Cheers.
I’m pleased that you went there and sent a message back from this unknown territory, to me and others who perhaps haven’t had the courage or curiosity to try. Thanks Tosh.
