This Library of America volume launches a definitive edition of a modern American master. For more than fifty years, in pathbreaking works of postmod ern fiction, Don DeLillo has been uniquely attuned, in Diane Johnson’s words, “to the content, not to mention the speech rhythms, dangers, dreams, [and] fears” of modern life. Here, with new prefaces by the author, are three essential novels from the 1980s, DeLillo’s breakthrough decade. Written in Greece and inspired by DeLillo’s travels through the Middle East and India, The Names (1982) follows James Axton, a risk analyst tasked by his corpo rate clients to assess economic threats from terrorism and other forms of political upheaval. When Axton uncovers evidence of ritual murders committed by a cult obsessed with ancient languages, investigations lead deeper and deeper into a bewildering and disturb ing world of shifting identities, disconnection, and unsettling violence. In White Noise (1985), a wickedly funny vision of American consumerism and the weirdness of modern domestic life frames an ominous tale of ecological catastrophe. Jack Gladney, a professor of Hitler Studies living in an imperfectly blended family in a middle-American college town, finds himself a tem porary refugee when a Bhopal-like “airborne toxic event” necessitates the town’s evacuation. This eerie episode fuels the insistent fear of death felt by Gladney and his wife, who has secretly enlisted in the testing for Dylar, a drug purporting to cure the human dread of mortality. Part campus satire, part midlife character study, the novel is DeLillo’s
endur ing depiction of a civilization whose banalities seem apocalyptic, and vice versa. The fruit of extensive research in the historical record, Libra. (1988) frises novelistic invention and factual detail in its sweeping account of the assassination of John F. Kennedy. In DeLillo’s virtuosic retelling the shadowy figure of Lee Harvey Oswald becomes a
complicated figure depicted with subtlety and depth, even as the act that brought him onto the stage of history remains hauntingly uncertain. The novel’s plausibility is unnerving, even for its author: “as I re read parts of the novel now,” DeLillo writes in his new preface, “I’m not always sure whether certain characters belong to history or fiction.” Rounding out the volume are two hard-to-find essays directly related to the novels: “American Blood,” the 1983 Rolling Stone article that was DeLillo’s first effort to grapple with the welter of speculation about the JFK assassination and Oswald’s murder by Jack Ruby; and “Silhouette City,” from 1989, a penetrating analysis of extremist right-wing groups and the trou bling presence of neo-Nazism in the United States.
