The Crying of Lot 49?

Have any of you read The Crying of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon? I've recently read it, and have been creating a sizeable amount of art based on it. It is very related to mail, specifically unofficial mail  carrier organizations within the US. A good read for anyone interested in postmodern lit or mail-related arts. 

Anyway, If any of you have read it, please send me a message and I will send some art your way. I'd also be very open to discussing the book with anyone who desires that.

    This comes years too late, probably (it's now 2024), but I taught The Crying of Lot 49 as a teaching assistant in grad school, and now I can't do any mail art without thinking about the book. Would love to receive some Lot 49 mail art. :-)   JV

      Thank You. Many years have passed and it's Christmas 2024. After reading Your message, I downloaded the Russian translation of this novel from the Internet and now I want to read it on New Year's Eve.
