Higgenbaum's Mitzvah
Have you ever encountered a challenge so vast and convoluted that you had to take multiple runs at it over the span of many years? If so, you may relate to the cautionary tale contained herein. If not, well, bonnie for you! Perhaps there's some value here for if and when you do encounter your own personal Everest. Today's episode is an audio journal of my attempt to read Thomas Pynchon's 1100-page metahistorical explosion of a novel, "Against the Day." Join me on this intimate journey of struggle, joy and self-discovery. #ThomasPynchon #AgainstTheDay #Pynchon #ShadowTicket #OneBattleAfterAnother #ReadAlong #BigBooks #OleTommyPincher #EpicNovels #MetahistographicalNovels #Coattails #FameChasing #Drafting #TakingAdvantageOfAnothersNotoriety #DidIMentionThomasPynchon? #PaulThomasAnderson #Fiction #LiteraryFiction #LiterallyFiction #Higgenbaum #Reading #Paper #Words #Ink #PrintingPress #MartinLuther #HumanLanguage #1883WorldsFair #Dirigible #GravitysRainbow #1085Pages #DeepLiteraryAnalysis #StunningInsight #Juggling Higgenbaum's Mitzvah is produced, written, performed and scored by Scott Pinkmountain Join the Higgenbaum's Mitzvah mailing list at www.higgenbaumsmitzvah.com Follow along on Bluesky @higgenbaum.bsky.social
