Synopsis"Christian Allusions in the Novels of Thomas Pynchon" provides the only comprehensive study to date of the myriad references in the works of Thomas Pynchon. While the book focuses on the novel "V., " Price shows how Christian allusions of several types function similarly in most of the work of Thomas Pynchon, beginning with his first published short story and continuing through the most recent novel "Gravity's Rainbow." Not only an analysis of the religious allusions themselves, the text explores the cinematic nature of their role in creating a literary montage of a waning twentieth century.
