{"product_id":"don-delillo-stacey-olster-9780826444639","title":"Don Delillo: Mao II, Underworld, Falling Man","description":"A wide-ranging study of the post-1990 fiction of one of America's most respected writers and cultural critics, this volume focuses on three of Don DeLillo's most recent novelsG  Mao II, Underworld, and Falling ManG  that span pivotal moments in recent history: the end of the Cold War, the millennium, and 9\/11. Consisting of original essays written by scholars whose interdisciplinary approachesG  drawn from art history and religious history, ethnic studies and urban studies, popular culture and political scienceG  shed new light on DeLillo's work, it investigates DeLillo's portrait of turn-of-the-century America as the nation confronts the defining phenomena of globalism and terrorism. With an eye always on the impact that shifts in historical sensibility produce on aesthetic sensibility, the volume also considers the role that DeLillo sees narrative playing in a world dominated by digital images and provides the first extended analysis of how much faith he has in fiction's ability to convey the trauma of September 11, an event commonly conceived as resistant to all forms of artistic expression.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stacey Olster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0826444636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780826444639\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Continnuum-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/21\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.40w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2011","brand":"Stacey Olster","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44120370741503,"sku":"9780826444639","price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1b9421a3-f163-4600-b235-32fa9ecc937a.jpg?v=1687413953","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/don-delillo-stacey-olster-9780826444639","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
