Author Description
This book examines the ways in which John Gardner's 'October Light', Bret Easton Ellis's 'American Psycho', Thomas Pynchon's 'Vineland', Mark Leyner's 'Et Tu Babe', Bobbie Ann Mason's 'In Country' and Don DeLillo's 'White Noise' formulate critiques of a late-capitalist consumer culture proclaimed in recent years to be all but unassailable.
