Explore the roots of modern American discontent in a guided reading of Don DeLillo's eighth novel, White Noise. Over the course of six weeks we'll read this masterwork together, exploring DeLillo's picture of an America on or perhaps already over the brink, in search of not just lessons we can bring to our lives as readers and writers of literature, but ways we might better understand the world around us, and how it stands in relation to the dark, portentous vision of DeLillo's arresting novel.
