>Rachel was looking into the mirror at an angle of 45°, and so had a view of the face turned toward the room and the face on the other side, reflected in the mirror; here were time and reverse-time, co-existing, cancelling one another exactly out. Were there many such reference points, scattered throughout the world, perhaps only at nodes like this room which housed a transient population of the imperfect, the dissatisfied; did real time plus virtual or mirror-time equal zero and thus serve some half-understood moral purpose? Or was it only the mirror world that counted; only a promise of a kind that the inward bow of a nose-bridge or a promontory of extra cartilage at the chin meant a reversal of ill fortune such that the world of the altered would thenceforth run on mirror-time; work and love by mirror-light and be only, till death stopped the heart's ticking (metronome's music) quietly as light ceases to vibrate, an imp's dance under the century's own chandeliers....

Not even memeing here, what the fuck did he mean by this?

learn to optics
it's basic entry level physics on how mirrors make images.

long story short, an upright image in a mirror is a "virtual" image, as opposed to a "real" image that other types of mirrors (concave, convex) can make.

An agonizingly brute-forced attempt at using science for metaphor. The entire book, in other words. Corncob McCarthy's upcoming book will be the same.

The screaming of the V1 ripping through the air, the aftereffect screaming of the V2's explosion, the screaming of the population, the screaming of Gottfried in the rocket 00000, the screaming of copulation, as the new world is borne of the transition from V1 to V2, the automated war, the remote war, the war of statisticians and scientists. It is a mingling of precognitive dreams on the night before the first V2 launch, ACHTUNG, Pokler, Katja - who has planned her escape from the Heath around the first launching - and Blicero, who can already see the end with Gottfried and the 00000

I would also like to take this moment to say Gottfried Gott fried!

If you don't want to "spoilers" don't read discussion of a book's most significant passages until you've finished it. Beyond that you've got noone but yourself to blame here, you're a dumbass for even caring about "spoilers" - if what you're looking for from Gravity's Rainbow is the shock of twists and turns you're wasting your time - but then you're wasting your faculties if you're looking for that in any literature.
