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.

    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.

        Have read and re-read this book -- always a wild trip.  Especially a number of passages I remember about Maas (?) wandering at night through San Francisco.  Darn, now I want to re-read again.....  Pynchon is a monolith, I love his work, though admittedly have only scratched the surface....  Please send Lot 49 content my way I will send some yours.... (we await silent tristero's empire....)
