Running Dog (Italian Edition)

by Don DeLillo, Silvia Pareschi (Translator)

Overview

Protagonista di questo romanzo di Don DeLillo, riproposto in una nuova traduzione, è un vecchio film amatoriale a cui numerosi eccentrici e ambigui personaggi danno la caccia. La pellicola, si dice, è la documentazione di un'orgia avvenuta nel bunker di Hitler durante gli ultimi giorni del Terzo Reich. DeLillo rielabora con maestria gli ingredienti del thriller convenzionale - spionaggio, omicidio, pornografia - in una storia a suspense narrata con il consueto, inimitabile stile.

Editorial Reviews

Superbly energetic...slighty surreal, but grimly serious...Don DeLillo, who has proved himself a master of the menace in everyday situations with such frightening novels as Great Jones Street and Players, has done it again. -- Washington Post Book World
