Kosmopolis

Da Eric Parker, 28 år og finansgeni, en dag i april 2000 forlader sin treetagers penthouselejlighed på Manhattans fashionable East Side og sætter sig ind i sin hvide luksuslimosine, har han kun to punkter på dagens program: et gigantisk spekulationsprojekt mod den japanske yen og at blive klippet hos sin barber på West Side.

Men som dagen går, udvikler yennen sig uforudsigeligt og katastrofen lurer i kanten af synsfeltet. Alle Erics selvdestruktive instinkter bliver vakt, og i stedet for at trække sig ud af sit spekulationsprojekt styrer han direkte mod økonomisk ruin. Samtidig beslutter han sig for at konfrontere truslen fra den mand, som hans sikkerhedsvagter længe har advaret ham imod. Så hvad der startede som en almindelig dag i Eric Parkers liv udvikler sig i stedet til en odysse mod afgrunden.

Don DeLillo (f. 1936) er født i New York og er en af de mest anerkendte nulevende amerikanske forfattere. Han debuterede i 1971 med romanen "Americana" og har sidenhen været en fundamental del af den postmoderne litteratur. Forfattere som Brett Easton Ellis og David Foster Wallace er begge blevet inspireret af Don DeLillos værker.
