Synopsis
DeLillo puts his own memorable spin on the Kennedy assassination, bringing to life with plausibility and wit all the major characters in the unsolved drama. A "work of imagination," according to DeLillo, the novel presents Lee Harvey Oswald as an intensely realized, highly conflicted character who is recruited not to kill the president but to make an unsuccessful assassination attempt that will ultimately be blamed on Castro."

Publisher's Note
The scheme of two disgruntled CIA agents to stage an unsuccessful attempt on the life of President Kennedy and link it to Cuba backfires when the erratic Lee Harvey Oswald goes too far.

Industry reviews
"DeLillo's language is dazzling as he presents an ingenious fusing of fact and fiction, theory and reality....This is a hallucinatory meditation on the seductiveness of conspiracy: strangely lyrical and fraught with steadily encroaching terror."
 (08/29/2009)

"Don DeLillo's cold and brilliant novel begins with thirteen-year-old Lee Harvey Oswald and his mother--that American Medea, Marguerite--watching television in the Bronx....DeLillo flies by night, and enters, an exorcist, into rooms and dreams. In each room, he finds a secret and a coincidence, a loneliness and a connection, even a kind of theology...But language is DeLillo's plastique. Out of gnarled speech, funny, vulgar, gnomic, he composes stunning cantatas for the damned to sing. LIBRA is as choral as it's cinematic."
"The Last Innocent White Man in America" - John Leonard
