520    "The Ruins of Urban Modernity examines Thomas Pynchon's 
       2006 novel Against the Day through the critical lens of 
       urban spatiality. Navigating the textual landscapes of New
       York, Venice, London, Los Angeles and the 1893 Chicago 
       World's Fair, Against the Day reimagines urban modernity 
       at the turn of the 20th century. As the complex novel 
       collapses and rebuilds anew the spatial imaginaries 
       underlying the popular fictions of urban modernity, Utku 
       Mogultay explores how such creative disfiguration throws 
       light on the contemporary urban world. Through critical 
       spatial readings, he considers how Pynchon historicizes 
       issues ranging from the commodification of the urban 
       landscape to the politics of place-making. In Mogultay's 
       reading, Against the Day is shown to offer an oblique 
       negotiation of postmodern urban spaces, thus directing our
       attention to the ongoing erosion of sociospatial diversity
       in North American cities and elsewhere."--Bloomsbury
