| Description: | Select Guide Rating A magnificent, essential work of fiction about the event which has come to define America at the turn of the twenty-first century. <p><b><i>Falling Man</i> begins on September 11, in the smoke and ash of the burning towers. </b><br><br>In the days and the years following, we trace the aftermath of this global tremor in the private lives of a few reticulated individuals. Theirs are lives choreographed by loss, by grief and by the enormous force of history.<br><br> From these intimate portraits, Don DeLillo shifts to an extrapolated vision: he charts the way the events have reconfigured our emotional landscape, our memory and our perception of the world.<br><br><i>Falling Man </i>is an unforgettable novel, at once cathartic and beautiful and heartbreaking.</p> |
