Reviews)
Zoyd, the protagonist of Thomas Pynchon's novel "Vineland," faces a mundane challenge when he runs out of cigarettes. This seemingly trivial situation serves as a reflection of his disconnection from society and his struggles with personal issues. The absence of smokes symbolizes a depletion of comfort and routine in his chaotic life, highlighting the deeper themes of addiction and escapism present in the narrative.
