'Erecting a conceptual bridge from the colonial and imperial discourses that inform modern global capitalism to the critical environmentalisms that make up the growing field of Anthropocene studies, Andersen delivers an ambitiously conceived and deeply rewarding analysis of one the most important American novelists of the post-World War II era.' Patrick Whitmarsh, Studies in the Novel 'Andersen ... writes with panache and in a vivid style, free of obscuring jargon ...' Jeffrey Severs, Orbit: A Journal of American Literature 'Planetary Pynchon puts together a sensitive, accurate portrait of an author whose works seem, on reflection, less a 'resigned demonstration' of the imperfect 'way the world works' and rather more 'an invitation for us to act differently'.' Guy Stevenson, Times Literary Supplement
