5.0 out of 5 stars
Lacan, Deleuze and Pynchon
I'm a huge Pynchon fan, and know little of Lacan or Deleuze. This book applies French theory to Pynchon's text. It also gives introductions to Lacan and Deleuze. So I'm finding it very helpful and interesting. It's not an easy read, but if this is the sort of thing you like, you will like this book. (-;

3.0 out of 5 stars
Adequate assimilation of theory and text.
Only recommended to hardcore theorists and devoted Pynchonites (if those two titles can possibly coincide). Although I don't find the theory particuarly engaging, someone may.............this book is for you, but not me. Berressem is thorough in his evaluation, and the book isn't a difficult read. Overall, a mild recommendation.
