Fiction
Against the Day
Pynchon's thousand-page carnival spans decades and continents, following anarchists, balloonists, and mad scientists through a world spinning toward catastrophe. The weight of this book matches its ambitions—nothing less than capturing the moment when the old world died and the new one began. For readers who enjoy getting lost in vast narratives where every character connects to every other in ways both obvious and occult. Tesla and Groucho Marx wander through the margins while civilization prepares to devour itself.
