{"product_id":"against-the-day","title":"Against the Day","description":"A New York Times Bestseller • A Washington Post Best Book of the Year • A New York Times Notable Book\n\n“[Pynchon's] funniest and arguably his most accessible novel.” —The New York Times Book Review\n\n“Audacious, bodacious, entropic, synoptic, electric, eclectic, entertaining, hyperbraining, high-roller, tripolar . . . Buy Against the Day.\" —The Philadelphia Inquirer\n\nSpanning the era between the Chicago World's Fair of 1893 and the years just after World War I, and constantly moving between locations across the globe (and to a few places not strictly speaking on the map at all), Against the Day unfolds with a phantasmagoria of characters that includes anarchists, balloonists, drug enthusiasts, mathematicians, mad scientists, shamans, spies, and hired guns. As an era of uncertainty comes crashing down around their ears and an unpredictable future commences, these folks are mostly just trying to pursue their lives. Sometimes they manage to catch up; sometimes it's their lives that pursue them.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0143112562\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0143112562.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Pynchon, Thomas\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
