I've read White Noise, Cosmopolis, and Underworld, in that order. Where to next? I didn't care for Underworld too much but I really liked White Noise.

Anyone read Zero-K? How is it?

Last book of DeLillo's I read was Libra, which while good, was done better by Ellroy with American Tabloid. White Noise and Underworld are amazing though.

What is DeLillo's prose like and where do I start with him?

Compared to the meme-trilogy its very subdued and ostensibly simple.

Mao II, my dude. Libra is one of his best so cap it with that.

Can't argue with that. I'm thinking of picking up Ratner's Star. Convince me out of it.

Imagine Pynchon's themes except none of the goofs and gags.

Nah, I love me some Ellroy but American Tabloid is not better than Libra. Also, Cold Six Thousand is better than American Tabloid.

>>9246852
Ellroy is a big fan of Libra. Read both. They do different things. Libra is focused on Oswald. American Tabloid doesn't mention Oswald ever. Read both and then read The Cold Six Thousand.

DeLillo would say that ranking authors is a symptom of contemporary hysteria

I liked Zero K, but it was one of his most image reliant books, it's abstract but not as much as his shorter books Point Omega and The Body Artist. It was good though, you should read it, bot that long.
