Description
Thomas Pynchon reimagines the lives of Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon, the famed surveyors who charted the boundary between Pennsylvania and Maryland. Their epic journey takes them from the Cape of Good Hope to the tumultuous pre-Revolutionary American frontier, encountering a world brimming with conspiracy, adventure, and the often-unseen undercurrents of the Age of Reason. Through Pynchon's signature intricate prose, this novel explores the Enlightenment's dark hemisphere, weaving together themes of science, politics, and the human capacity for both madness and redemption.
