Review

"This novel is a return to DeLillo's best work. No other writer could encompass 9/11 quite like DeLillo does here." (starred review)

"[A] revelatory piece of writing that will stand as a testament to his genius."

"It's a testament to DeLillo's brilliant command of language that readers will feel once again, whether they want to or not, as scared and as sad as they felt that day."

"FALLING MAN may not be the last word on 9/11, but it is the clearest vision yet of what it felt like to live through that day....So this is what Aristotle meant by catharsis."

Annotation

Since the debut of AMERICANA in 1971 Don DeLillo has been the preeminent fictional chronicler of the subterranean intersection between the forces of political power and individual ideology, a perspicacious articulator of the seething paranoia of global milieu, and a brainy prose surgeon of our fabulist reality. FALLING MAN is a novel about September 11th, something that should surprise no one since September 11th is the type of event, in its colossal concept-shattering force, that, if it had NOT happened, DeLillo would have had to invent himself. These are the types of historical landmarks that DeLillo was born to write about, to grapple with, to be cowed by, to overcome, to imagine and re-imagine, and through literature, reclaim as something that can, however furtively, be known.
