Pictures Showing What Happens on Each Page of Thomas Pynchon's Novel Gravity's Rainbow

Pictures Showing What Happens on Each Page of Thomas Pynchon's Novel Gravity's Rainbow
Pictures Showing What Happens on Each Page of Thomas Pynchon's Novel Gravity's Rainbow By Zak Smith
2006 | 784 Pages | ISBN: 1935639048 | EPUB | 39 MB
Thomas Pynchon's "Gravity's Rainbow" (1973), set in an alternative-universe version of World War II, has been called a modern "Finnegan's Wake" for its challenging language, wild anachronisms, hallucinatory happenings, and fever-dream imagery. With "Pictures Showing What Happens on Each Page of Thomas Pynchon's Novel Gravity's Rainbow, " artist Zak Smith at once eases and expands readers' experience of the book. A leading exponent of punk-based, DIY art, Smith here presents his most ambitious project to date -- an art book exactly as long as the work it's interpreting: 760 drawings, paintings, photos, and less definable images in 760 pages. Extraordinary tableaux of the detritus of war -- a burned-out Konigstiger tank, a melted machine gun -- coexist alongside such phantasmagoric Pynchon inventions as the "stumbling bird" and "Girgori the octopus." Smith has stated his aim to be "as literal as possible" in interpreting "Gravity's Rainbow, " but his images are as imaginative and powerfully unique as the prose they honor.
