Has anyone here used the website http://www.literature-map.com/ ? You just type an author into it, and it tells you what other authors that people who like the author also enjoy. Try it out.
Results for Thomas Pynchon. Pretty much what you'd expect.

Yeah and its results are unsurprisingly based on that very same thing, it just pulls whatever names come up on the same pages, which is how you end up with Haruki Murakami being the closest thing to James Joyce, and otherwise with whatever names are found on an author's publisher or wikipedia page

Why would people be talking about Joyce and Murakami in the same context so often, then?
