I fucking adore this book. Nobody likes it when someone pipes up with this phrase, but it feels like this novel has gone over everyone's head. It's such a beautiful closing of the loop for Pynchon, and barring a catastrophic failure in the final leg of the story here, I think it'll be able to go blow for blow with his other works.

I don't know if this will be a controversial opinion, but so far Shadow Ticket is far and away my favorite of Pynchon's P.I. trilogy. It's so incredibly atmospheric and moody, while also feeling more human and than either Bleeding Edge or Inherent Vice. Every single time I even open the book I'm transported back to 1930's Milwaukee - it's magic.
