'A novel that is both slight and profound, a distilled meditation on perception and loss, and a poised, individual ghost story for the twenty-first century' Observer The Body Artist begins with normality: breakfast between a married couple, Lauren and Rey, in their ramshackle rented house on the New England coast. Recording their delicate, intimate, half-complete thoughts and words, DeLillo proves himself a stunningly unsentimental observer of our idiosyncratic relationships. But after breakfast, Rey makes a decision that leaves Lauren utterly alone, or seems to. As Lauren, the body artist of the title, becomes strangely detached from herself and the temporal world, the novel becomes an exploration of a highly abnormal grieving process; a fascinating expose of 'who we are when we are not rehearsing who we are'; and a rarefied study of trauma and creativity, absence and presence, isolation and communion.

delillo的故事呢我一直觉得故弄玄虚，但不妨碍喜欢他实验性的语言。这部开头的细节捕捉，point omega的慢镜头，cosmopolis尝得出金属味的描写……他这样通感的、氛围的语言也许受电影影响不小吧？

读这本书明显感觉德里罗在现代主义和后现代主义之间的摇摆不定，但不变的是，他一直在试图用语言来捕捉时间。用词语不断将叙事时间延长，便是对生命的延续。前半颇有革命之路的感觉，后半时好时坏，朋友报道那部分十分实验，但最后我觉得是写差了，只不过结尾一段十分出彩。
