Underworld

Very popular and vastly overrated. A meandering endeavor in pointless and often random writing. Being able to do this well is like being the most liberal attendee at a Klan rally.

Amazing book. A little patchy at times, perhaps a little overambitious, but overall a masterpiece. Took me ages to get through and often I didn't always follow what was going on but never really cared as I was happy to soak up the often stunning prose. Worth the effort.

DeLillo's finest, and a work that reinforces the beauty of language. Regardless the subject at hand (and there are many in this novel), DeLillo's prosaic declarations are breathtaking.

A tough read for me, but got through and loved learning from it.
