Welcome to the PynchonWiki
"One has a stronger hand when there's more people playing your same cards." - G.W. Bush, Oct 11, 2006
A special thanks to Mr David Kipen for being the first contributor to this eventually historical website. You can read the beginnings of his annotation of the Against the Day blurb, written by Thomas Pynchon, which appeared, disappeared and reappeared at Amazon.com.

Click here for help with editing and creating pages.
We have a few conventions we ask that you follow:
- When creating a new page, if its information pertains to one (and only one) specific Pynchon novel (currently just Against the Day, please preface it with the identifier "ATD".
- For example, Against the Day is divided into five sections, and we're starting a section-by-section annotation, so the first section is ATD The Light Over the Ranges.
- If you'd like to start a foreign translations page for Against the Day, you'd use ATD - Translations.
Against the Day Alpha Guide (beta)
A - B - C - D - E - F - G - H - I - J - K - L - M - N - O - P - Q - R - S - T - U - V - W - XYZ
I will be providing more support for using this wiki in the coming weeks. Feel free to contact me (tim at hyperarts dot com) with any questions.
Thanks, and enjoy...
