Rainbow gravity. Pinchon T.

Thomas Pinchon - along with Salinger, The Great American Recluse, one of the largest writers of world literature XX, and now the 21st century, after the first publications unanimously recognized by the classic of the level of Nabokov, Joyce and Borges. His “Rainbow of Grace” is the main post -war romance of world literature, which has absorbed the second half of the 20th century, just as the Joyce “Ulysses” incorporated the first. This is a grand postmodern epic and caustic satire, it is a tragedy multiplied by the farce and a radical anti -war utterance, it is a counter -cultural Bible and an explosive mixture of irony with conspiracyology; This is finally unique reader experience and surreal traverse through the underworld of our collective past.

Without a “rainbow of gravity”, there would not be neither the “pendulum of Foucault” Umberto Eco, nor the entire cyberpunk, combined, and the landscape of modern literature would be completely different. For almost half a century now, in this book, no day, then discover new meanings, but the only correct reading remains, fortunately, unattainable. Having received the main American literary award - the US National Book Prize, nominated for a dozen other prestigious awards and with its radicalism, which caused the avalanche of venerable jury, the "rainbow of gravity" remains outside the assessment scale and outside of time.
