Looking forward to that interview, John 🙂

I always tried to read as much as possible. Despite having less free time lately, I still try to read 30-40 pages per day; a novel, a history book, it doesn’t matter. I just need to touch an analog book. Pynchon was always a great inspiration and one of the most original writers I have ever come across. His books aren’t easy and definitely not pageturners. However, the universe he creates is unique, and I’m always up for some Pynchon pages. Rereading “V.” before visiting Valletta reminded me why I appreciate him so much.

Pynchon and Joyce are way too advanced for me. I’m more in the 15-year-old reading age bracket. You must have read many novels to have read books from both of these famous authors. Plus, I know you have written your own novel, which is a significant accomplishment. When I interview you for my website, I’ll have to ask you questions about your reading regime and some of the best books you’ve read.

John, I’m a big fan of Vs! I liked the sci-fi series very much, and the same goes for V for Vendetta (there’s also a Pynchon reference in it). Yes, I’ve read most of James Joyce’s books, Ulysses included. A challenging book, but I still haven’t participated in a Bloomsday. A James Joyce literary walk is in my plans, and I hope to make one soon.
Do you like Pynchon? I never thought of asking you so far.
