Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow,
in the original dust-jacket

PYNCHON, Thomas. Gravity's Rainbow. New York: Viking Press, (1973). Octavo, original orange cloth, original dust jacket. $2500.

First edition of Pynchon's masterpiece. Often compared to Ulysses and Moby-Dick for its vast scope and intellectual complexity, Gravity's Rainbow is arguably the most important fictional work of the last thirty years. Book fine, uncommonly bright dust jacket with one trifling imperfection: a small glossy patch to lower spine of dust-jacket (see above).   An outstanding copy of this scarce and groundbreaking work.
