Pensa a due linee parallele. Una è la vita di Lee H. Oswald. L'altra è la cospirazione per uccidere il Presidente. Cosa collega le due? Cosa rende inevitabile una connessione? C'è una terza linea. Nasce da sogni, visioni, intuizioni, preghiere, dai livelli più profondi del sé. Adolescente tormentato che viaggia senza sosta sui vagoni della metropolitana di New York, Lee Harvey Oswald entra nell'età adulta credendosi un agente della storia. Questo lo rende un bersaglio facile per una coppia di agenti della CIA scontenti, convinti che un fallito attentato alla vita del Presidente degli Stati Uniti costringerà la nazione ad affrontare di petto la minaccia del comunismo. Libra è un'avvincente e magistrale miscela di realtà e finzione, che mette a nudo la psiche americana ferita e gli eventi oscuri che ancora la tormentano. 'Un'audace miscela di finzione e realtà' The Times.

Don DeLillo was born and raised in New York City. He has written fifteen novels and three stage plays and has won many honours including the National Book Award for White Noise, the International Fiction Prize for Libra, the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction for Mao II, the Jerusalem Prize, the Howells Medal for Underworld and the PEN/Saul Bellow Award for Achievement in American Fiction.
Don DeLillo's extraordinary Libra is a brilliant reimagining of the events and people surrounding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Concentrating on the lives of Lee Harvey Oswald, some rogue former spooks unhappy with Kennedy's presidency, and Nicholas Branch, a CIA archivist, trying to make sense of or draw inferences from the mass of information after the assassination, Libra presents an unapologeticly provocative picture of America in the second half of the last century.
