A pioneering collection of international scholarship on Don DeLillo's engagement with the visual, literary, digital and televisual, performing, filmic, and spatial arts Gathering original essays from a diverse range of international contributors, including established voices in DeLillo criticism and emerging experts, this volume forges new paths in the study of one of the greatest authors of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Beginning with a section dedicated to experiential and political aesthetics in DeLillo's work, the Companion offers new perspectives on the forms and functions of the arts across DeLillo's entire oeuvre--from his first novel Americana, through his plays, essays, and short stories, to his latest novel, The Silence. This exciting Companion is a genuine intervention in DeLillo scholarship, offering an interdisciplinary examination of his work across forms, media, and methods.
