Over in Italy, a new & deeply gratifying review for the translation of my TALKING HEADS: 77. Comparisons to #DeLillo, /3 Days of the Condor/, & an hallucinatory mosaic. Grazie infinite, Giovanni Agnoloni, Arkadia Editore, e tutti.

Can’t let today go by without saluting its birthday boy, #DeLillo. This was spring, 2017, a conference at The New School, NYC. With me, the organizer Joe Salvatore.
Went to the bookstore and got a timely pair of books of ridiculousness and war. #books #delillo #clausewitz
