Welcome to the Pynchon Wiki

To become a contributor/editor, Create an account.

Order Against the Day
The Mysterious Airship of 1896
This is the newly created Wiki for -- inaugurally -- Thomas Pynchon's Against the Day, and eventually for the guides to Pynchon's other "big" novels, V., Gravity's Rainbow and Mason & Dixon, which are currently available at ThomasPynchon.com. Eventually, all the novels will be migrated here so that registered users of this wiki can create pages and make changes for those novels' guides.

You can read the Against the Day description, written by Thomas Pynchon, which appeared, disappeared and reappeared at Amazon.com.

You can also use the Against the Day Alphabetical Index on this site to keep track of the myriad characters, real and imagined, as well as events, arcana, and lots of other stuff.

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 categorize it with the identifier "ATD" using this syntax: [[Category:ATD]]
  • To open a discussion on an individual listing of the Alpha Index, see the page on Tait. Basically, give it a name that identifies the alpha listing (eg [[Name Discussion|DISCUSSION]]) and notice that the visible name will be "DISCUSSION" in full caps, so it stands out a bit.

Annotations by Page

Featured Article

Tesla's Wardenclyffe laboratory

Was the Tunguska Event Caused by Tesla's Death Ray?
Given that Tesla's inventions generally possessed an element of social conscience, of doing good for humanity, it may seem surprising that he created a number of devices with military applications. And the notion of the Tesla harnessing his mind for purposes of war may seem immensely frightening. After all, this is the man who boasted that with his resonance generator he could split the earth in two... and no one was ever quite sure whether he was joking.
