In this collaboration between The Left Page and Rev Left, Frank joins Breht to discuss the 1985 novel by Don DeLillo "White Noise". We discuss postmodern literature, the limitations of irony, American consumer culture, Brazilian politics, the fear of dying, fascism, the burning of the Amazon rainforest, the impact of technology on modern life, and so much more!
