As an American novelist, playwright, and essayist, Don Delillo has covered a wide variety of subjects - including nuclear war, the impending digital age, and the JFK assassination just to name a few. As a well regarded cult writer, he has described his writing to be focused on "living in dangerous times." With an impressive and diverse list of over 15 novels, Delillo's work carries an unsettling and honest portrayal of the pressures of the clock. This book series is a literal representation of the often obscure interaction humans have with time, its meaning, and its relation to others - whether it be a desire to slow it down, to expand it, or to avoid it completely.
