Förlagets beskrivning
Thomas Pynchons Gravitys Rainbow (1973), set in an alternative-universe version of World War II, has been called a modern Finnegans 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 its interpreting: 760 drawings, paintings, photos, and less definable images in 760 pages. Extraordinary tableaux of the detritus of war a burned-out Knigstiger 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 Gravitys Rainbow, but his images are as imaginative and powerfully unique as the prose they honor
