× About The Hypertext Library

This site is devoted to the idea that literature can be analyzed in a hypertextual manner. A certain word or phrase may appear several times for a given book, and we believe there is meaning embedded in the links between the occurrences. This site allows you to treat a book like a brain, with synaptic connections from word to word, strengthening the meaning behind the text. As you explore the books, remember, every word is a link, click it to see where it leads.The Hypertext Library was made by Noah Eisen and Robert Rose . Our initial goal was to improve the performance and aesthetics of this site , which we both used while reading Ulysses.If you are interested in contributing, requesting a book, or learning more about this website, check out our github page
