Pelevin's works reminds one of Thomas Pynchon's, but of course, with a certain Russian twist.

Omon Ra

However, a surprising number of prominent authors are contumeliously dismissed: Robert Coover is "a closet fascist" who is "forever mincing or else obscenely chuckling about how nothing can be known," though he is elsewhere described as an "American fundamentalist Christian gone wrong"; Saul Bellow "is patently and annoyingly a male chauvinist pig"; Thomas Pynchon is "perhaps the dullest writer now living"; any writer in the Southern Gothic tradition is working in "an inherently inferior form." Other writers receive lavish praise: Joyce Carol Oates's Bellefleur is "a tour de force of imagination and intellect"; Bernard Malamud's Dubin's Lives is "a major work, comic, philosophical, and poetic"; John Cheever is "one of the few living American novelists who might qualify as true artists."

On Writers and Writing

In the end, Virtual Light shares much of the generous spirit and slapstick humor of Thomas Pynchon's Vineland (1990).

Virtual Light

Teachers of English literature take Thomas Pynchon's 1966 novel as a window for teaching the American writer's work generally.

Pynchon character names; a dictionary

In 1990, when, after seventeen novel-less years, Thomas Pynchon published Vineland, old Pynchon hands everywhere moaned: we waited so long for this?

Mason & Dixon

Over the course of the work, she defends democratic place-based politics against the Deleuzian notion of boundary-crossing and hybridization through examination of the case of a New Mexico livestock cooperative, further questions the idea of boundarylessness through explorations of the writings of Hannah Arendt and Thomas Pynchon's The Crying of Lot 49, and examines the types of actions that can transform place.

Strange places; the political potentials and perils of everyday spaces

After Vineland is published in 1990, AVA editor Bruce Anderson realizes that the letters must have been written by Thomas Pynchon, who reportedly lived in Mendocino County while writing Vineland.

The Letters of Wanda Tinasky

So, to take just two examples, no plot synopsis is provided for Joan Didion's Year of magical thinking, from 2005, nor for Thomas Pynchon's 2006 Against the day.
