Suddenly out of nowhere 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 one of those words going around at the moment, like \"trip\" or \"groovy,\" except that this one usually leads to trouble.\n\nIn this lively yarn, Thomas Pynchon, working in an unaccustomed genre, provides a classic illustration of the principle that if you can remember the sixties, you weren't there . . . or . . . if you were there, then you . . . or, wait, is it . . .\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0143117564\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0143117564.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Pynchon, Thomas\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
