PYNCHON, Thomas

Gravity's Rainbow

First edition. Uncorrected Proof. Tall blue wrappers. A tiny tear at the edge of the base of the spine, spine a little sunned, a nice, very good plus copy. The author's third novel. An exceptionally influential Burgess 99 title, winner of the National Book Award and the William Dean Howell Medal (for the best work of fiction to appear in the U.S. over a five-year period). Thenovel was also voted the Pulitzer Prize, but the award's overseeing committee refused to grant the prize to Pynchon and thus none was given that year. A nice copy of an uncommon issue.
