''Slow Learner'' is the 1984 published collection of six early short stories by the American novelist Thomas Pynchon, originally published in various sources between 1959 and 1964. The book is also notable for its introduction, written by Pynchon. His comments on the stories after reading them again for the first time in many years, and his recollection of the events surrounding their creation, amount to the author's only autobiographical comments to his readers. == Content == * Introduction * "The Small Rain" - First published in March, 1959 in the ''Cornell Writer,'' No. 2, pp. 14–32. * "Mortality and Mercy in Vienna" (available only in some editions) - First published in ''Epoch'' (Cornell University), Spring 1959, Vol IX, No. 4, pp. 195–213. * *The story takes its title from ''Measure for Measure'' Act I Scene 1 line 44. * "Low-lands" - First published in ''New World Writing'', No. 16, Philadelphia: Lippincott, on 16 March 1960, pp. 85–108. * "Entropy" - First published in the ''Kenyon Review 22,'' No. 2, in Spring 1960, pp. 27–92. * "Under the Rose" - First published in ''The Noble Savage 3'' in May 1961, pp. 233–251. * "The Secret Integration" - First published December 26, 1964 in ''The Saturday Evening Post 237 No. 45,'' pp. 36–37, 39, 42-44, 46-49, 51. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Slow Learner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
