One of the few available books of criticism on the topic, this
monograph presents the fullest account to date of Don DeLillo's
writing, situating his oeuvre within a wider analysis of the
condition of contemporary fiction, and dealing with his entire work
in relation to contemporary political and economic concerns for the
fist time. Providing a lucid and nuanced reading of DeLillo's
ambivalent engagement with American and European culture, as well
as with modernism and postmodernism, and globalization and
terrorism, this fascinating volume interrogates the critical and
aesthetic capacities of fiction in what is an age of global
capitalism and US cultural imperialism.
