Ah I lurve Pip Roth. One of my very favourite writers of all time. Haven't read Deception yet though! Sorry! *blush*
How good was Everyman? He's been on a great run of form since American Pastoral and shows no sign of getting less angry at the world despite his advancing years.
Pynchon's always been a tough nut to crack but that's part of his charm-takes you from the lip of 1940s women's stockings to the mechaics of making a bomb all done in brilliant constructed prose and sly humour. Even his characters have cool names.
