Product Description
Great Jones Street
Author: Don DeLillo
Format: Paperback
A troubling satire of the romantic myth of stardom and the empty heart of rock and roll. Bucky Wunderlick is a rock and roll star.
Dissatisfied with a life that has brought fame and fortune, he suddenly decides he no longer wants to be a commodity. He leaves his band mid-tour and holes up in a dingy, unfurnished apartment in Great Jones Street.
Unfortunately, his disappearing act only succeeds in inflaming interest . . . Great Jones Street, Don DeLillo's third novel, probes the rights of the individual, foreshadows the struggle of the artist within a capitalist world, and delivers a scathing portrait of our culture's obsession with the lives of the few.
Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.
