Against the Day: Planes, Surfaces, Lines of Flight
Against the Day is organized like A Thousand Plateaus by Gilles Deleuze and
Felix Guattari. It is constructed of planes and surfaces, each a continuum
of either space or time. These planes intersect, as do the novel’s subplots
and concepts, through a series of dots or plot points connected by narrative
arcs, each a line of flight, each borne on the wing and whimsy of Pynchon’s
mad characters and historical doubles, and drawn by the invisible hand of an
agency whose intrinsic logic is algorithmic, artistic, atomist, ballistic,
bled, blown, buried, chemical, conjured, counter-transferred, detonated,
differential, disappearing, dug, energized, explosive, forensic, forlorn,
found, hallucinated, harmonized, illuminating, impregnated, internalized,
literary, lived, logarithmic, lost, loved, melodic, modal, orphaned,
passional, painted, played, plotted, political, projected, probabilistic,
pursued, pursuing, quantum, recollecting, reflecting, refracting,
scientific, screened, screwed, shuffled, spun, strummed, strung, subjective,
telegraphed, transferred, vector-based, wired, wirelessly transmitted, or
blown by trade wind or un-ticketed time-travel (the two primary modes, and
two shadows produced on the book’s jacket cover).
