De Lillo is a great writer, his novels are intelligent and thought-provoking. I've read White Noise many years ago; to this day, I consider it the best investigation that I've ever read about Death. We all have to die sooner or later and yet, interestingly, death is the great taboo of our modern society.

I bet a lot of people on HN would enjoy Ratner's Star. I'm a huge fan of his early novels: End Zone, Great Jones Street, Ratner's Star and Running Dog are my favorites. All of those novels are quick, amusing reads that unfolded in my mind for many years afterward.

Ratner's Star is one of my all time favorites and I still use the quote ”No definition of ’science’ is complete without a reference to ’terror’.” as my email signature.
