reviewed At Home in the City: Urban Domesticity in American Literature and Culture, 1850-1930 on June 04, 2012 At Home in the City: Urban Domesticity in American Literature and Culture, 1850-1930
A very helpful guide to Delillo's massive doorstop of a book. Unlike the Continuum guide to "White Noise," I felt like I actually got a bit more out of the source text for reading this. The author connected several elements that actually helped sharpen my thinking while I work on the review for "Underworld." At the same time, it's still a study guide written to a template, and so it's hard to give it anything more than a "liked it" rating. If you've recently read "Underworld" and want a coherent (if not terribly daring) opinion about it, give this a shot.
