I think this is considered the least of his books, but it's the only one I like. ( ) (not sure I understand how this book works) I wish I could rate books w/decimals or 1/10 scores, because I've got a really bittersweet feeling over this one, albeit recognizing it as a good book. I just... think there are better options to explain these themes. I loved the snow moment and everything Myna-related though. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

The second novel by Don DeLillo, author of White Noise (winner of the National Book Award) and Zero K At Logos College in West Texas, huge young men, vacuum-packed into shoulder pads and shiny helmets, play football with intense passion. During an uncharacteristic winning season, the perplexed and distracted running back Gary Harkness has periodic fits of nuclear glee; he is fueled and shielded by his fear of and fascination with nuclear conflict. Among oddly afflicted and recognizable players, the terminologies of football and nuclear war--the language of end zones--become interchangeable, and their meaning deteriorates as the collegiate year runs its course. In this triumphantly funny, deeply searching novel, Don DeLillo explores the metaphor of football as war with rich, original zeal. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
