内容简介

庆祝PICADOR BOOKS 50周年 

多么奇怪啊。我们对自己和我们所爱的人有这些深深的可怕的恐惧，挥之不去。然而，我们却四处走动，与人交谈，吃喝。

我们设法运作。这些感觉是深刻而真实的。难道它们不应该使我们瘫痪吗？杰克·格拉德尼是希特勒研究的创造者和山顶学院的主席。

这是他荒诞的生活的故事；这种生活足够顺利，直到一辆铁路车的化学品泄漏释放出 "空气中的有毒事件"，杰克被迫面对他的恐惧--他自己的死亡。《白噪声》是社会讽刺和形而上学困境的毫不费力的结合，唐·德里罗在其中揭露了我们猖獗的消费主义、媒体饱和和新奇的知识主义。它抓住了在对死亡的恐惧无法否认、压抑或掩盖的情况下生活的特殊陌生感，并思考了在我们生存的意义受到威胁的时候，家庭的作用。

“美国Z伟大的在世作家"。- Picador系列的《观察家》，这是一个展示现代文学优秀作品的新系列。

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF PICADOR BOOKS 

How strange it is. We have these deep terrible lingering fears about ourselves and the people we love. Yet we walk around, talk to people, eat and drink.

We manage to function. The feelings are deep and real. Shouldn't they paralyze us? Jack Gladney is the creator and chairman of Hitler studies at the College-on-the-Hill.

This is the story of his absurd life; a life that is going well enough, until a chemical spill from a rail car releases an 'Airborne Toxic Event' and Jack is forced to confront his biggest fear - his own mortality. White Noise is an effortless combination of social satire and metaphysical dilemma in which Don DeLillo exposes our rampant consumerism, media saturation and novelty intellectualism. It captures the particular strangeness of life lived when the fear of death cannot be denied, repressed or obscured and ponders the role of the family in a time when the very meaning of our existence is under threat.

'America's greatest living writer.' - Observer Part of the Picador Collection, a new series showcasing the best of modern literature.
