DeLillo's writing is, to me, comparable to wind on a winter's day. It's cold, determined, impartial, and all-encompassing. He's not one of my favorite authors, but very few authors can work the same magic as him, and very few authors would write a book like this one.

Lovers of plot, beware. Closure-junkies, stay far away. Emotional connection seekers, read something else. Fans of experimentation, prose-addicts, idea maniacs, eat your heart out.
