Présentation de l'éditeur
Slow Learner is a compilation of early stories written between 1959 and 1964, before Pynchon achieved recognition as a prominent writer for his 1963 novel, V and containing a revelatory essay on his early influences and writing.
The collection consists of five short stories: 'The Small Rain', 'Lowlands', 'Entropy', 'Under the Rose', and 'The Secret Integration', as well as an introduction written by Pynchon himself for the 1984 publication. The five stories were originally published individually in various literary magazines but in 1984, after Pynchon had achieved greater recognition, Slow Learner was published to collect and copyright the stories into one volume. The introduction also offers a rare insight into Pynchon's own views on his work and influences.
Revue de presse
"Possibly the most accomplished writer of prose in English since James Joyce... Sentence by sentence he can do more than any novelist of this century with the resources of the English-American language" (London Review of Books)
"Anything from the most monstrous talent in the post-war West should be pursued in earnest. I've eaten two copies already" (Time Out)
"Thomas Pynchon is the Gargantua of modern fiction... In Slow Learner he breaks cover for the first time with a remarkable open handed portrait of the writer as a young man" (Sunday Times)
"Pynchon at his best" (Guardian)

Etat : Very Good+. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good+. First Edition, First Printing. A Very Good+ Book in a Very Good+ Dust Jacket, Unclipped ($14.95). Book is moderately shelf worn and sunned to extremities. Tan boards show some light soiling. Text block is mostly bright and fresh with a few traces of soiling. Text is unmarked. Binding is tight and square. Fred Marcellino designed dust jacket is moderately shelf worn to top and bottom edges with bumping/rubbing causing whitening, wrinkling and chipping, notably to crown and tail. Previous trade sticker has left residue over the second "r" of "Learner" and a small white spot which may be a loss from sticker removal. Jacket may have lost some vibrancy from sunning. Hardcover. Octavo. [x], [2], 3-193pp. ".I now pretend to have reached a level of clarity about the younger writer I was jack then. I mean I can't very well just 86 this guy from life. On the other hand, if through some as yet undeveloped technology I were to run into him today, how comfortable would I feel about lending him money, or for that matter even stepping down the street to have a beer and talk over old times?" Publisher's Tan Cloth, Gilt Detailing. N° de réf. du vendeur 416
