Love-lies-bleeding
by Don Delillo

"An articulate exploration…several poignant ironies become intertwined with the life-ending debate at hand.” —Variety. “Hauntingly beautiful…DeLillo is a wordsmith whose language sings with such seemingly effortless beauty and truth.” —Chicago Tribune. “DeLillo gives us a weave of meditative monologues and scenes…an exquisite piece of writing, splendidly rendered…compelling.” —Chicago Sun-Times. “Merciless, meticulous writing…The language traps anguish in frozen, formal diction…chock-full of resonant metaphors and poignant exchanges.” —Chicago Reader. “LOVE-LIES-BLEEDING [is] an austere consideration of how enlightened humankind tries to assert primacy over forces beyond its control…profound.” —Washington Post. “Boasting laconic yet liquid dialogue, DeLillo asks a stirring, unanswerable question without tarnishing it with sentimentality."
