Non-fiction recs for readers of Gravity's Rainbow?

Hey everyone -

I just read Gravity's Rainbow for the first time. And, like many of my other favorite novels, it has ignited my interest in several real-world events and subjects. So, I thought I'd ask this sub for some non-fiction recommendations.

I'll list a few topics I had in mind, but please recommend anything at all that you think would be relevant to GR. I'm thinking of:

  • history of IG Farben

  • fascism as corporatism (not just Nazi Germany)

  • history of chemistry for a lay reader (maybe Kekulé specifically)

  • history of the V-2 (though I'm pretty bored by military history)

  • anything about governments' (Allies, Axis, or anyone else, really) experiments with the supernatural (CIA experimenting with remote viewing, stuff like that)

  • early days of psychedelics (were people already using LSD and psilocybin during WWII? was cannabis use that widespread?)

  • any alt-history/conspiracy-minded stuff about the war (no far-right racist shit, please), specifically about business interests

  • your favorite Plasticman stories

...und so weiter. Danke schön!
