Thomas Pynchon - along with Salinger, "the great American recluse", one of the greatest writers of world literature of XX and now XXI century, after the first publications unanimously recognized as a classic of the level of Nabokov, Joyce and Borges. Pynchon's characters are traditionally obsessed with the themes of universal conspiracy and social paranoia, the search for the secret springs of history. In a collection of early prose by "an inimitable teller of stories from the dark underbelly of our imagination" (Guardian), we observe "a brilliant talent at the start" (New Republic). Moreover, the book contains perhaps the only extended direct statement from the famous recluse: 'No one knew anything about Pynchon as a person - until he revealed himself in the preface to a collection of his early stories' (Sunday Times). The translations are published in a new edition, the author's preface is published in Russian for the first time.
