The
preface of this story was very interesting.
I actually really enjoyed reading about the mass wedding. As weird as it was, it was interesting to
hear the story from Karen’s parent’s point of view as well as her own. DeLillo has a very unique style of writing
that is a little hard to get into. He
definitely tends to jump around a lot which can be frustrating at times for readers.
It was definitely a complete
shock to go from the preface into chapter one.
I was almost a little mad that the story didn’t continue on from the
mass wedding. I found the first five
chapters to be little boring. I am not a
fan of not knowing where a story is going to go. I like to have a general idea of what the
book is going to be about so that I know if I will like it or not. However, DeLillo keeps readers out of the
loop for quite a while, jumping from character to character.
