QUICK TAKES
Pynchon novel out in December
Josh Getlin
June 22, 2006
Thomas Pynchon, the reclusive, award-winning author of
"Gravity's Rainbow," "V," "Mason & Dixon" and "Vineland," is
finishing up a new novel, and the book will go on sale in
December, his publisher announced this week.
"There is not yet a title, and we're not releasing
information about the subject matter at this point," said
Tracy Locke, associate publisher for Penguin Press. "At this
point, that's really all I can tell you."
Pynchon's new novel, his first since "Mason & Dixon" in
1997, is shrouded in mystery, as were many of his previous
books before publication. The author, born in 1937 in Glen
Cove, Long Island, N.Y., has long avoided publicity, and his
books have acquired a cult-like status among many readers.
