Focusing on consumerism, a central theme in Don DeLillo's work, the author explores its implications in American society, paralleling ideas from French theorist Jean Baudrillard. Since his debut novel, Americana, in 1971, DeLillo has established himself as a significant voice in American literature, delving into the complexities of culture and identity shaped by consumerist values. His insights continue to resonate, inviting readers to reflect on the pervasive influence of consumption in contemporary life.
