Amazon info on new Pynchon

[Ya Sam]

Well, almost a thousand pages...
Enough space not only for Chicago, Kovalevskaya and Hilbert with his space, 
but for virtually anything one can and can't imagine when it comes to 
Pynchon's limitless erudition and wild imagination. I hope this will be a 
good book... Anyways, Pynchon scholars may sigh with  relief, they have 
before them a bright future  of numerous essays, monographs, and conference 
papers to keep them occuppied for several decades (a slight nod to Joyce's 
comment on "Finnegan's Wake" here). Unfortunately I wasn't on the P-list 
when M&D was first released. At the time I'm afraid, I didn't know about 
Pynchon's existence. But I checked the archives of that period, and the 
explosion of enthusiasm among TRP's readers first 'collectively expecting' 
the appearance of the book and then plunging into group reading. I am 
extremely happy that I will have an opportunity to witness something similar 
this December. Hey, hibernating Pynchonites, start waking up!
