Reviews
"Quite simply, one of those books that will make this world - our world, our daily chemical-preservatice, plastic-wrapped bread - a little more tolerable, a little more human . . . [Pynchon's] voice - absolutely unmistakeable and absolutely inimitable . . . is the American voice of the late twentieth century." --Frank McConnell, Los Angeles Times Book Review " Free-flowing and light and funny . . . That rarest of birds: a major political novel about what America has been doing to itself, to its children, all these many years." --Salman Rushdie, New York Times Book Review "A multimedia semithriller, a Star Wars for the counterculture . . . a brief for the disinherited and dispossessed, the outlaws and outcasts of an underground America." --John Leonard, The Nation

Synopsis
Vineland, a zone of blessed anarchy in northern California, is the last refuge of hippiedom, a culture devastated by the sobriety epidemic, Reaganomics, and the Tube. Here, in an Orwellian 1984, Zoyd Wheeler and his daughter Prairie search for Prairie's long-lost mother, a Sixties radical who ran off with a narc. Vineland is vintage Pynchon, full of quasi-allegorical characters, elaborate unresolved subplots, corny songs ("Floozy with an Uzi"), movie spoofs (Pee-wee Herman in The Robert Musil Story ), and illicit sex (including a macho variation on the infamous sportscar scene in V. ). For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators., "Quite simply, one of those books that will make this world - our world, our daily chemical-preservatice, plastic-wrapped bread - a little more tolerable, a little more human . . . [Pynchon's] voice - absolutely unmistakeable and absolutely inimitable . . . is the American voice of the late twentieth century." --Frank McConnell, Los Angeles Times Book Review "Later than usual one summer morning in 1984 . . ." On California's fog-hung North Coast, the enchanted redwood groves of Vineland County harbor a wild assortment of Sixties survivors and refugees from the "Nixonian Reaction," still struggling with the consequences of their past lives. Aging hippie freak Zoyd Wheeler is revving up for his annual act of televised insanity when news reaches him that his old nemesis, sinister Federal agent Brock Vond, has come storming into Vineland at the head of a heavily armed Justice Department strike force. Zoyd instantly disappears underground, but not before dispatching his teenage daughter Prairie on a dark odyssey into her secret, unspeakable past . . . Freely combining disparate elements from American pop culture - spy thrillers, Ninja potboilers, TV soap operas, sci-fi fantasies - Vineland emerges as what Salman Rushdie has called in the New York Times Book Review "that rarest of birds: a major political novel about what America has been doing to itself, to its children, all these many years."

Getting it shipped took a little long but the seller was very responsive when I messaged and sent me the tracking as soon as it was available. Plus they did a good job packaging it well enough that despite being banged up on the outside my item was completely undamaged.
