WHITE NOISE BY DON DELIINO

This book is described as comic. Well I for one can't find anything humorous or comic about this book. It is full of redundant conversations. This book is sometime quite boring and those long conversations make it more. Coming to more positive side of this book, it is really based on two particular themes.
The two main themes of White Noise are consumerism and fear of death. At the interface between both subjects DeLillo has inserted a prophetic toxic emission incident, in which poisonous side products threaten the lives of the main character and his family, thus augmenting their fear of death. While these three elements seem entirely appropriate to make this story work, the author inserts a couple of extra themes that really prove detrimental to the story.
Over all not a great read I will give it 2/5.
