Title: A BRILLIANTLY WRITTEN CLASSIC
Review: From the poetic opening to the climatic ending, Don Delillo doesn't fail to deliver what is promised; a dark piece of history on paper.Character's are expertly crafted and there is rarely the sentence lacking in ingenius observances and irony. Dialogue is extremely provocative and difficult events are pictured with masterful eloquence. The plot itself is very well-crafted if not neccessarily executed to the fullest. The ever-present cynicism is also very welcome and blesses the novel with a unique feel.If there is a flaw with the book, it must be said that there is a lack of consistent progression. You ca devour a hundred or more pages without having a sense of a developing plot. This factor is why I haven't recommended this book any higher. I still believe White Noise is has yet to be toppled over its lofty perch.However, despite this shortcoming, this book is testimony to Delillo's position in comtemporary literature: a master for lesser's to see.
