Since his 1971 debut, Americana, DeLillo has gone from sometimes being
dismissed as an epigone of Thomas Pynchon to being acclaimed (in the words
of hard-to-please novelist Martin Amis) as "a writer of high intellect and
harsh originality, equipped with extraordinary gifts of eye and ear -- and
of nose, palate and fingertips."
