Gravity’s Rainbow
 Of all Pynchon’s works, Gravity’s Rainbow has attracted the most critical attention, inspiring a dozen or so guides, analyses, or essay collections. Unfortunately, most of them are out of print. The following list is by no means comprehensive – it only reflects the few titles that are currently in print, or can be easily ordered over the Web. The list is arranged by publishing date, and as any casual perusal will reveal, some of the earlier books lack commentary. Spermatikos Logos welcomes any informed reviews or comments, so please feel free to email us!
If you wish to see a more comprehensive catalog of titles, with more out-of-print listings, you may visit the Critical Bibliography or Bookstore sections.
