In praise of Don DeLillo

May 23, 2007jonlasser

Slate discusses Don DeLillo’s new novel, Falling Man, and reminds me exactly why he may be America’s most iconic novelist: the titles of his novels become the titles of entirely unrelated movies.

Given American culture, that makes him a truer visionary than if they turned his books into movies.
