I've just finished reading James Hillman's
_Re-Visioning Psychology_, a 1975 essay that I highly
recommend as a companion piece to Pynchon's novels,
especially _Gravity's Rainbow_. If you've read Norman
O. Brown looking for insight into Pynchon, I suggest
you give Hillman a try, too. (Amazon.com offers an
excerpt from the book that you can read online, but
it's not until the final chapter of the book that
Hillman begins pulling his various threads together in
a way that evoked, for me, Pynchon's tapestry.)
Pynchon provided a support quote for another of
Hillman's books, _We've Had a Hundred Years of
Psychotherapy and the World's Getting Worse_.
