"[Pynchon's] funniest and arguably his most accessible novel." -The
New York Times Book Review "Raunchy, funny, digressive, brilliant."
-USA Today "Rich and sweeping, wild and thrilling." -The Boston
Globe The inimitable Thomas Pynchon has done it again. Hailed as "a
major work of art" by The Wall Street Journal, his first novel in
almost ten years spans the era between the Chicago World's Fair of
1893 and the years just after World War I and moves among locations
across the globe (and to a few places not strictly speaking on the
map at all). With a phantasmagoria of characters and a
kaleidoscopic plot, Against the Day confronts a world of impending
disaster, unrestrained corporate greed, false religiosity, moronic
fecklessness, and evil intent in high places and still manages to
be hilarious, moving, profound, and so much more.
