Wonderful, playful take on the whole JFK thing.  My middle name is Oswald.

Just finished this one today - it's a good read, a bit of a slow mover at parts.  But all in all, considering the topic matter, an enjoyable read.

Both a character study of Lee Harvey Oswald, and one possibility of what might have been behind the Kennedy assasination. Despite knowing how the book's going to end, it's a fascinating journey.

LIBRA is the fictional account of Lee Harvey Oswald's role in the assassination of John F. Kennedy.  A deliberate departure at times from the facts.  Believably written, but I spent too much time fighting it and do not recommend it unless you are a DeLillo fan, in which case you have already read it and come to your own conclusions.
