The Crying of Doctor Faustus

This book combines the text of The Crying of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon (1966) and The Tragical History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe (1604).
 
This is a typographic exploration of the analogous themes I have discovered in these two texts—themes of pride, death, ciphers, and the most prevalent I have found—the relentless pursuit of knowledge and its consequences.
