Bog beskrivelse

Radical Hope in the Novels of Thomas Pynchon: The Moon and Meteor provides a careful consideration of the author''s career, examining the ways in which the subversion of his early novels feeds into the radical optimism of his later works. The book''s first half explores the author''s use of the image of the Moon as a romanticized ideal that is irreparably corrupted by and corruptly manipulated by forces of worldly power. The second half takes up the meteor as an image of impending violence that has yet to be full realized, finding in the unlikely possibility of that violence being somehow averted, a reckless sort of hope. This foolhardy but nonetheless real hope to escape from violent, oppressive structures and forge a real ethical obligation to the other marks the development of these paired metaphors, and through them Pynchon introduces the possibility, however slight, that literature, with its powerfully intimate relationship with consciousness, may at least sustain that hope.
