I feel like enlightenment is probably not the word OP should have used. It had beautiful bits. Slothrops final moments in the story, "Nothin in his head, just feelin natural" comes to mind as an example. But yeah, there was certainly nothing enlightening about it.

Sometimes I think back to Roger Mexico...why are women a bunch of whores, man?
Feels bad that I'll never get some of them sick banana sandwiches.

It is incommunicable. How can you communicate in words that which is by nature beyond them?
The book created a change in my state of being.
I'm sorry you're such a faggot OP.
I remembered I read this in college for an independent study.
I looked at a paper I wrote on how authors dealt with WWII trauma and basically the conclusion I came to was "the rocket has an erection and therefore Pynchon is showing that the difference between a person and an object is insignificant in his post-WWII reality".
Then I remember my professor telling me to take out the entire section on Pynchon because he doesn't write about anything meaningful or have any sort of point.
Seemed like good advice at the time.

>Then I remember my professor telling me to
At this point you should have stopped listening. The only professors that have any core, responsible, and note-taking worthy intelligence and advice are those in mathematics and medicine.
Art related professors are literally full of hot air. They are the reason for global warming, for climate change, the hole in the ozone, and the ability for an undergrad art student to believe that their time was well spent in getting a degree in art history with a minor in literary analysis.

Sorry, I didn't realize my lit professor was trying to destroy the world.

Actually the erection motif was to show how unprovoked modern war can be, no more than a hardon, at will of forces completely beyond traditional logics, yet part of intricate systems of logic all their own, a movie away from the pavlovian cause and effect towards the Roger Mexico regime of pure numbers justified by politics only after the fact. (a perceived reversal of cause and effect such as the V2's sound bringing its death when really the variables - the systems- are just much too complex for human understanding)
For further reading: Ask anyone on the street what WW1 and WW2 were about and be ready for their streamlined cause and effect narratives that completely betray the truth of the wars
