Delillo. I was assigned Underworld for a college lit class and struggled to plow through it. I don’t think I ever finished it. I tried multiple times and always got bored over the years.
Finally got around to reading white noise and it blew my mind. I loved every word.
I’ve read a lot of Faulkner and I found the sound and the fury to be absolutely, astonishingly profound. But I also read that one after having read like four or five others for a lot class so I wonder if there’s something to starting with easier Faulkner first.
Vibe is the zeitgeist
Good to know. Loved Jonathan strange so much but haven’t read anything else from her.
