  1. #3GoodThings (class on Don #DeLillo's Cosmopolis)

    1. Played Erik #Satie's Gymnopédie 1, which the students didn't know (it plays in one of Eric Packer's elevators!)

    2. Talked about ALL the #art in the novel: Not only Satie, but also #Rothko, rap, film.

    3. Discussed the novel in relation to critiquing binaries; advancing a theory of asymmetry.

  6. How lucky I am to get to read and reread books for my living (and teach and write about them). Fun Fact: #DeLillo's Cosmopolis is dedicated to #PaulAuster. I can definitely see a/the resemblance.

  15. "Why Don DeLillo Deserves the Nobel Prize" by Gerald Howard at Book forum. Spot on but, unfortunately, not gonna happen. And that doesn't really matter at all.

  24. Speaking of Airborne Toxic Events, the only thing #deLillo got wrong in the novel from which I've borrowed the phrase ('White Noise') is that instead of a single region it's an entire continent that's involved, and ultimately, the globe itself.

  29. I’m sure someone has beaten me to this observation, but do we basically have the plot of White Noise happening in rural Ohio this month?

  40. Just finished reading #Delillo's #WhiteNoise and it may be the whitest book about white people i've ever read. Whiteness like some sticky goo that has oozed onto everything. Consumer academic health philosophical whiteness. Damn. Very good book. Now on to the movie. I'm excited for the movie.

  45. I was pleasantly not disppointed by the #film adaptation of White Noise. This, in spite of it being kinda quirky & charming. Which...isn't really my take on #DeLillo, in general.

    Gonna have to go back and rewatch Cosmopolis now. My memory of it was it being somewhat 'meh'. But apparently I rated it 4 out of 5 stars at the time. Hrmph. Perhaps Cronenberg tricked me. Or gave me brain-worms. #movies
