I haven't been reading my Publishers' Weekly as I should. Does anyone know
about a novel by Pynchon about the Civil War to be publsihed soon? I
understannd it's another Opus that he had ready before Vineland but
couldn't get out for some reason, so he dashed Vineland off in a few weeks
to fill up the hole (I beleive it).

Howdy y'all,

>From what I've read on the San Narciso home page, TRP was working on a 
Civil War novel and temporarily put that project on hold to do 
Vineland... is a new novel due for imminent release?  Oooh oooh!
