This excellent blog has been doing 10 page synopses of Thomas Pynchon's fantastic novel Mason & Dixon for a while now. Making me want to read the book again. It's a suprisingly good novel if you can get into the faux-18th century prose - it's funny, moving, fantastical, and intelligent. I learned more about the founding of our country by reading this book then I have since grade school. I actually have an essay on this subject somewhere inside of me - I even have the notes to prove it - that I'll sit down and write... one of these days...
