I have been thinking about Thomas Pynchon a lot recently since his new novel will be released on Tuesday, October 7th,
Here are the front and back covers of a literary magazine, New World Writing, from 1960 that included Pynchon’s “Low-lands”. The story was later included in his 1984 collection Slow Learner. The story includes the character Pig Bodine who also appears in Pynchon’s novels V. and Gravity’s Rainbow.
