The book's complex timeline and layered narratives make it feel like a puzzle. I wonder what motivated Pynchon's choice to tell the story this way.

The novel's dense allusions and vast cast can be daunting. Was this intentional to mirror the chaos of the era, or just Pynchon's style?

They seem to symbolize progress and destruction simultaneously. I'm curious if others see a deeper message about modernity here.
