Críticas
"There's pleasure on evey page of this pitch-perfect evocation of a half-century."--Malcolm Jones "Newsweek "
"The book is an aria and a wolf-whistle of our half century. It contains multitudes."--Michael Ondaatje
"Astonishing. A sprawling and spectacular look at a half-century in American life as seen through a series of multiple visions that come flashing into our consciousness in ways that are endlessly enlightening and awesome in their insights. DeLillo has raised literary standards to new highs here, and yet the book is a page-turner, a scene-stealer, a triumph of language that takes us everywhere we've never been."--Gay Talese
"Underworld is a page-turner and a masterwork, a sublime novel and a delight to read."--Joan Mellen "The Baltimore Sun "
"Masterpieces teach you how to read them, and Underworld is no exception....Anastonishing piece of prose and a benchmark of twentieth-century fiction, Underworld is stunnigly beautiful in its generous humanity, locating the true power of history not in tyranny, collective political movements of history books, but inside each of us."--Greg Burkman "The Seattle Times "
"Underworld is magnificent book by an American master."--Salman Rushdie
"Underworld's intellect, its view, its fabulous drama, its soul, its passion and compassion, and the beauty of the writing, just the size and generosity of it, are all of some spectacular high order. I can't imagine any writer reading it without complete admiration and a kind of gratitude, because if a book like that can be written in a culture like this, it's terrific for all of us."--Michael Herr
"The profundity, the intricacy, the beauty of Underworld leaves me in a state of awe. It's one of a handful of novels that will come to define our culture in this century."--Bradford Morrow
Underworld is a "dazzling and prescient novel...A decade after 9/11, it's worth rereading Don DeLillo's 1997 masterpiece to appreciate how uncannily the author not only captured the surreal weirdness of life in the second half of the 20th century but also anticipated America's lurch into the terror and exigencies of the new millennium...A breathtaking set piece...the prologue is a bravura display of Mr. DeLillo's literary powers."--Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
"His best novel and perhaps that most elusive of creatures, a great American novel . . . . a masterpiece in which the depth and reach of the commonplace are invested with universal scope and grandeur. Underworld is also a thrilling page-turner, propelling us along with realistic characters and those compelling details that make it impossible for them--or us--to escape the past."--David Wiegand, The San Francisco Chronicle Book Review
Reseña del editor
A finalist for the National Book Award, Don DeLillo’s most powerful and riveting novel—“a great American novel, a masterpiece, a thrilling page-turner” (San Francisco Chronicle)—Underworld is about the second half of the twentieth century in America and about two people, an artist and an executive, whose lives intertwine in New York in the fifties and again in the nineties.
With cameo appearances by Lenny Bruce, J. Edgar Hoover, Bobby Thompson, Frank Sinatra, Jackie Gleason and Toots Shor, “this is DeLillo’s most affecting novel...a dazzling, phosphorescent work of art” (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times).
