Chuffed that my review of Don DeLillo’s “The Silence” is quoted in the blurb pages of the new paperback edition, a special one that includes an essay by him at the end, “Man at the Window.” Essay’s closing line is trademark DeLillo sublime. @scribnerbooks @hyperallergic

Had an absurd dream last night in which humans declared a big international stoppage of everything for Evolution Day with the statement, “We Have Arrived.” A UN Resolution endorsed it. Twitter cynics then decried it, e.g. “But Wisdom Teeth!” Does this mean I dream big? Fun one.
