Inherent Vice
Author: Thomas Pynchon
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101594675
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
"The funniest book Pynchon has written." — Rolling Stone "Entertainment of a high order." - Time Part noir, part psychedelic romp, all Thomas Pynchon—private eye Doc Sportello surfaces, occasionally, out of a marijuana haze to watch the end of an era. In this lively yarn, Thomas Pynchon, working in an unaccustomed genre that is at once exciting and accessible, provides a classic illustration of the principle that if you can remember the sixties, you weren't there. It's been a while since Doc Sportello has seen his ex- girlfriend. 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.

The Dragonfly of Lookout Mountain
Author: Judy Hatch
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780934747424
Category : Dragonflies
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
Set in the mountains across the canyon from Mount Shasta, this book is both an exquisitely illustrated story and a scientifically accurate account of the life cycle of the dragonfly. The pen and ink drawings show the dragonfly in many dramatic real-life situations impossible to catch with a camera. He encounters a trout, a raccoon, a bear and a life-threatening storm. He also spends time with a young woman who is a fire lookout in the tower at the top of the mountain. The story goes beyond the facts to convey a love of nature and admiration for the miracle of life. Longer than most illustrated children's books it appeals to "children" ages 3 through 93!
