V.

The first novel from the great, incomparable Thomas Pynchon.

The quest for V. sweeps us through sixty years and a panorama of Alexandria, Paris, Malta, Florence, Africa and New York. But who, where or what is V.? Bawdy, sometimes sad and frequently hilarious, V. as become a modern classic.

''The greatest, wildest, most infuriating author of his generation'' Ian Rankin, Guardian

''To read V. today is to experience Pynchon anew'' New Yorker
