Slow Learner — Thomas Pynchon
"An exhilarating spectacle of greatness discovering its powers." - New Republic
"Funny and wise enough to charm the gravity from a rainbow...All five of the pieces have unusual narrative vigor and inventiveness." - New York Times
Compiling five short stories originally written between 1959 and 1964, Slow Learner showcases Thomas Pynchon's writing before the publication of his first novel V. The stories compiled here are “The Small Rain,” “Low-lands,” “Entropy,” “Under the Rose,” and “The Secret Integration,” along with an introduction by Pynchon himself that Time magazine calls his "first public gesture toward autobiography."
