Looks like it was more than just a rumour! The
LA Times are now reporting on the rumours previously brought up here and on the Gaddis/P-List. Fall 2009 brings detective psychadelica to Pynchon.

As of now,
Ladbrokes are giving the following odds for various figures on the Nobel Prize for Literature 2008. I've omitted the vast majority and skipped to those of "interest".
Philip Roth - 5/1
Don DeLillo - 7/1
Thomas Pynchon - 14/1
Umberto Eco - 40/1
Will
Professor Irwin Corey get to make
another appearance?

"But while man has in money, as Arnheim saw it, the surest control of society, a means as tough and precise as the guillotine, it can also be as vulnerable as an arthritic - how painfully the money market limps and aches all over at the slightest draft! - and is most delicately involved with everything it controls."
Robert Musil,
The Man Without Qualities, trans. by Sophie Wilkins and Burton Pike (London: Picador, 1997), p. 421.

According to Stephen Moore, relaying information from a Penguin sales representative to the Gaddis list and subsequently discussed on the Pynchon list, there is to be a new Thomas Pynchon novel published
around Fall 2009.
