I've tried DeLillo twice (White Noise and Underworld) and I just don't
get the attraction. The blurbs on the books are intriguing... the
books are not. I think his kind of writing is the number one reason
that an American author hasn't won the NobelPPforLit since '93 and
that was just a token vote. Of course, when you look at who HAS won it
in the past 25 years, well, it's actually a wonder that Delillo isn't
in there.
saying nothing either way,
