anybody wanna talk about it?
>>
nah. read butcher's crossing- lets talk about that when youre done
>>
no

thanks for asking me in particular
>>
Just bought it waiting for it to ship. Not sure if I'll go for that next or Against the day
>>
sure, it's been a while since I've read it but one scene that comes to mind is when the main character (whatever the fuck his name is) sees the outline of his father-in-law sitting out on his porch.
>>
DUDE CONSUMERISM LMAO
>>
White noise or underworld first?
>>
gonna read it after I finish the one I'm currently reading
>>

I liked the latter more and read it faster.

Mao II is probably the best "intro" to Delillo, if you need one.
>>
>>8311549
Great, I already own Underworld so that's where I'll start with him, thanks for the reply.

Has anyone read Zero K? What are your thoughts?
>>
>>8311568
I liked it.
A mix of White Noise and Point Omega.
Protagonist seems autistic.
>>
>>8311126
The scene where he hears his daughter moan the name of a car in her sleep still haunts me.
>>
>>8311562
There's a meme by pseudos going around saying the beginning is the best part and that's absolutely false.
>>
>>8311630
White Noise is super depressing, imo. GR-tier depressing.
>>
>>8311240
probably one of my favorite parts honestly. i thought it was a funny scene since he thought it was Death himself but it turned out it was just his father-in-law.

>>8311653
yeah, it was sorta depressing
>>
>>8311650
Seconded

You've got to start DeLillo with his best book.
>>
>>8311126
Sure but something I'd like to encourage you and others to do is read more DeLillo. His bibliography is wrongly under-explored seeing as stuff like Players and Ratner's Star are god tier.
>>
>>8311568
I liked it, although the main character was kind of painful to imagine.
>>
>>8312051
absolute madman
>>
