Falling Man

"Falling Man" is a magnificent, essential novel about the event that defines turn-of-the-century America. It begins in the smoke and ash of the burning towers and tracks the aftermath of this global tremor in the intimate lives of a few people. "DeLillo's most affecting novel yet...A dazzling, phosphorescent work of art."--Michiko Kakutani, "The New York Times" "The clearest vision yet of what it felt like to live through that day." --Malcolm Jones, "Newsweek" "A metaphysical ghost story about a woman alone...intimate, spare, exquisite." --Adam Begley, "The New York Times Book Review" "A brilliant new novel....Don DeLillo continues to think about the modern world in language and images as quizzically beautiful as any writer." -- "San Francisco Chronicle"
