Suddenly she shows up with a story about a plot to kidnap a billionaire land developer whom she just happens to be in love with. It's the tail end of the psychedelic sixties in L.A., and Doc knows that \"love\" is another of those words going around at the moment, like \"trip\" or \"groovy,\" except that this one usually leads to trouble. Undeniably one of the most influential writers at work today, Pynchon has penned another unforgettable book.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThomas Pynchon\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eV.\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Crying of Lot 49\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGravity's Rainbow\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSlow Learner\u003c\/i\u003e, a collection of short stories, \u003ci\u003eVineland\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMason and Dixon\u003c\/i\u003e and, most recently, \u003ci\u003eAgainst the Day\u003c\/i\u003e.
