Don DeLillo Should get every damn literary prize

Marc Arsenault

Someone (whom I could not find again) posted something to the effect of “I’m voting for the presidential candidate who nominates Don DeLillo for the Nobel Prize” on thee face books. I’m not quite sure it works that way, but I echo the sentiment. Don DeLillo is surely on many readers’ short lists of greatest American writers. Make that a list of writers of fiction and his name rises even closer to the top. Anyway, someone shared in the comments to that post a link to this video that I’d never seen nor heard of and I think you will enjoy. If you have not listened to Laurie Anderson’s performance of The Body Artist yet, I also suggest you do that.
