The Body Artist by Don DeLillo

 Started: 6/6/2021

Finished: 6/6/2021

Year: 2001

Pages: 126

Genre: Literature

Grade: C

Reason for reading: 1001 books to read before you die

Type: paperback

Blurb (from back cover): "In this spare, seductive novel, he inhabits the muted world of Lauren Hartke, an artist whose work defies the limits of the body. Lauren is living in a lonely coast in a rambling rented house, where she encounters a strange, ageless, man, a man with uncanny knowledge of her own life. Together they begin a journey into the wilderness of time-time, love, and human perception."

Opinion: Another one of the 1001 list that I wonder why....why is it on this list? It felt like this was a book assigned in English class where you need to figure out theme, etc and you are left wondering how you are going to bs your way through this essay. An average short book to say the least.
