Gravity`s Rainbow
“The greatest, wildest author of his generation”. (“Guardian”). We could tell you the year is 1944, that the main character is called Tyrone Slothrop and that he has a problem because bombs are falling across Europe and crashing to earth at the exact locations of his sexual conquests. But that doesn`t really begin to cover it. Reading this book is like falling down a rabbit hole into an outlandish, sinister, mysterious, absurd, compulsive netherworld. As the “Financial Times” said, `you must forget earlier notions about life and letters and even the Novel.` Forty years since publication, “Gravity`s Rainbow” has lost none of its power to enthral.
