Customer Reviews:

• Avg. Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0

• Not light reading
  Masterfully crafted novel. Expressive, satirical, explores postmodernity. Dark, confused story that's both enlightening and depressing.

• Lots of extras
  De Lillo's White Noise is a modern classic. What I especially like about this edition (Viking Critical Library) is the extra material: articles and critical essays on the novel. Reading it was like taking a small course in cultural studies, or something... recommended!

• Great Text; Essays are OK
  The text is great. Some of the essays are questionable but this may be helpful when teaching how to write a critical essay.

• An Excellent Case Study
  This book provides a critical look at the world of postmodern culture. It gives perspective which is not easy to find and also provides a critique in non-academic language, a helpful addition to any library.
