Reviews

I'm just barely digitally-literate enough to recognize how ingenious Ketzan's book is, and what an enormous amount of work has gone into it. You can count on these findings percolating through the Pynchon scholarship over the course of the next few years. I don't know whether this is a watershed moment in Pynchon scholarship, whatever that might mean, but I'm sure that in future no-one will want to venture claims about Pynchon's style without first checking to see what Ketzan has discovered. -- Brian McHale, Distinguished Arts and Humanities Professor of English, The Ohio State University, USA
