Cheesecake

Don DeLillo is an awesome writer, introduced to me by Joerg.

I am now a registered DeLillo-Junkie and am feverishly reading Underworld, an absolute masterpiece about a baseball; each and every one of the 827 pages is absolutely crammed with glorious prose, such as this gem from pg 180:

"The cheesecake was smooth and lush, with the personality of a warm and well-to-do uncle who knows a hundred dirty jokes and will die of sexual exertions in the arms of his mistress."

I love you, Lance
