Profile
Don DeLillo’s first novel was Americana, but with 1977’s Players, DeLillo's vision turned darker, and critics found little to like in the novel's protagonists but much to admire in DeLillo's prose. White Noise (1985) won the National Book Award for fiction, and Libra was much discussed, presenting a fictional portrayal of Lee Harvey Oswald. DeLillo's later works include Underworld and Falling Man.© 2013 A+E Networks. All rights reserved.

But let's not be too morbid and discuss creepy things like The Satanic Verses or try to get an Interview With a Vampire from The Stranger Who Professes 'I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings.' Going round in round like this, you may never know Where the Sidewalk Ends, and that would be unfortunate since Uncle Tom's Cabin is just around the corner...
