Vineland (Classic, 20thCentury, Penguin),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
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 longlost mother, a Sixties radical who ran off with a narc. Vineland is vintage Pynchon, full of quasiallegorical characters, elaborate unresolved subplots, corny songs ('Floozy with an Uzi'), movie spoofs (Peewee 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 Englishspeaking world.
