Libra (Contemporary American Fiction)

Description:

From the author of the National Book Award-winning novel White Noise comes an eerily convincing fictional speculation on the events leading up to the assassination of John F. Kennedy

In this powerful, unsettling novel, Don DeLillo chronicles Lee Harvey Oswald’s odyssey from troubled teenager to a man of precarious stability who imagines himself an agent of history. When “history” presents itself in the form of two disgruntled CIA operatives who decide that an unsuccessful attempt on the life of the president will galvanize the nation against communism, the scales are irrevocably tipped.

A gripping, masterful blend of fact and fiction, alive with meticulously portrayed characters both real and created,
Libra is a grave, haunting, and brilliant examination of an event that has become an indelible part of the American psyche.

Review

Praise for Libra:

Finalist for the National Book Award for Fiction 

"[DeLillo's] richest novel . . . It's in commonplace moments that [he] reveals his genius . . . a triumph." 
—Anne Tyler, The New York Times 

"Much of DeLillo’s earlier fiction now seems a brilliant prelude to [this novel]
 . . . Libra displays his genius for creative paranoia: he fills the gaps in the record with his imagination, spinning a brilliant web out of a heap of improbable coincidences." 
London Review of Books 

"[
Libra] is like a stop-motion frame of the crossfire, a still picture of an awful moment . . . DeLillo's prose has a quality of demented lyricism."
The New Yorker

"Extraordinary intensity . . . unforgiving thoroughness . . . DeLillo has created a thriller of the most profound sort . . .
Libra is electrifying, a book alive with suggestion."
Chicago Tribune

"Libra operates at a dizzyingly high level of intensity throughout; it's that true fictional rarity—a novel of admirable depth and relevance that's also a terrific page-turner."
