Description

In this revised edition, David Cowart discusses Don DeLillo's 13 novels, including ""Cosmopolis"", and explores the ways in which DeLillo's art anticipates, parallels, and contests ideas that have become the common currency of poststructuralist theory. Cowart argues that the major site of DeLillo's engagement with postmodernism is language, which DeLillo represents as more mysterious than current theory allows. For DeLillo, language remains what Cowart calls ""the ground of all making"".
