The most celebrated American novelist of the past half-century, an
indispensable figure of postmodernism worldwide, Thomas Pynchon
notoriously challenges his readers. This Companion provides tools
for meeting that challenge. Comprehensive, accessible, lively,
up-to-date and reliable, it approaches Pynchon's fiction from
various angles, calling on the expertise of an international roster
of scholars at the cutting edge of Pynchon studies. Part I covers
Pynchon's fiction novel-by-novel from the 1960s to the present,
including such indisputable classics as The Crying of Lot 49 and
Gravity's Rainbow. Part II zooms out to give a bird's-eye-view of
Pynchon's novelistic practice across his entire career. Part III
surveys major topics of Pynchon's fiction: history, politics,
alterity ('otherness') and science and technology. Designed for
students, scholars and fans alike, the Companion begins with a
biography of the elusive author and ends with a coda on how to read
Pynchon and a bibliography for further reading.
