comment
Kudzu Plot: As the book progresses, it slowly loses focus on the plot and at some point, one will realize that there are so many plot threads to untangle and lead to endless of loose ends.

Continuity Nod: Mason-Dixon Line was mentioned early in the novel. It could be said that Maxine was the child who answered Oedipa’s phone call in The Crying of Lot 49.

Lighter and Softer: Despite the occurence of 9/11 and one or two characters killed off, it was nowhere near as bleak and depressing as his previous work, particularly Vineland.
