       (Mrs. Oedipa Maas), and the testament of Pierce 
       Inverarity." Another portion appeared in Cavalier."--Title

520    "When her ex-lover, wealthy real-estate tycoon Pierce 
       Inverarity, dies and designates her the coexecutor of his 
       estate, California housewife Oedipa Maas is thrust into a 
       paranoid mystery of metaphors, symbols, and the United 
       States Postal Service. Traveling across Southern 
       California, she meets some extremely interesting 
       characters--including a teenage rock band called the 
       Paranoids, a right-wing historian and critic of the postal
       system, and a former child actor with whom she has an 
       affair--and begins to unravel conspiracies she suddenly 
       sees all around her. Written in 1966, The Crying of Lot 49
       demonstrates the piquant wit and power of invention that 
       are the hallmarks of Pynchon's acclaimed works. It is the 
       shortest of his novels, and widely held to be the 
       benchmark of this literary lion's career."--|cAmazon
