NUMB ... blurbed by ... Thomas Pynchon???

You'll want to click this link to see the full story of how Sean Ferrell, author of NUMB, asked to be blurbed by Thomas Pynchon.


Which is no surprise of course, since Paul Auster is also on the list.

  3. Did I pre-order NUMB? Oh yes I did because anyone who's willing to get into a slap fight/shouting match with Paul Auster in Brooklyn deserves to be read. And blurbed. And possibly committed, but with a laptop and all the writing materials he could possibly need.

    Awesome.

  4. Another book sold. Because if he writes books anything like he writes letters then I know NUMB is going to be a fun read. Off to B&N to pre-order...

  5. It's long been rumored that J.D. Salinger was Thomas Pynchon, so... good luck with that.

  6. I am now buying this book solely because of his blurb requests. Go internet!
