I'm interested in the depths of the lexicon. Thus, I've set off in a neverending odyssey for books written in a predominantely ornamental style. Any ideas about (fiction) books that make use (or abuse) of tons of words? Moby-Dick? Bleak House? Ulysses? The Scarlet Letter? Ada or Ardor? The Ambassadors? Nostromo? I've already read the obvious choices. Old, modern, it doesn't matter at all. I can go all the way from Defoe to Pynchon. The words are at stake here, the vocabulary. Suggestions?
