Product Information
Thomas Pynchon has received an unparalleled amount of criticism in the twenty-five years since the publication of his first novel: two dozen books, dozens of chapters in other books, hundreds of articles, even his own journal. No other novelist has generated as much criticism in as short a time, making Clifford Mead's bibliography a welcome and indispensable guide.Section one catalogues Pynchon's own writings--books, magazine contributions, reprints, translations, and piracies--while section two offers an exhaustive listing of virtually everything that had been written on Pynchon by 1989. Two special sections enhance the value of this book: one reprints Pynchon's dozen or so endorsements written for other books--most inaccessible or out-of-print--while the other reprints Pynchon's hitherto unknown contributions to his high school newspaper.The book is illustrated throughout with photographs of dust jacket covers (including a trial cover for Gravity's Rainbow), rare ephemera, and pictures of the young Pynchon from his high school yearbook.Product Identifiers
