Running Dog by Don Delillo
DeLillo's Running Dog, originally published in 1978, follows Moll Robbins, a New York city journalist trailing the activities of an influential senator. In the process she is dragged into the black market world of erotica and shady, infatuated men, where a cat-and-mouse chase for an erotic film rumored to star Adolph Hitler leads to trickery, maneuvering, and bloodshed. With streamlined prose and a thriller's narrative pace, Running Dog is a bright star in the modern master's early career.When Don DeLillo was twenty-three years old, he published his first short tale. Since then, he has published twelve books, the most recent of which being White Noise (1985), which won the National Book Award. It was followed by Libra (1988), a novel about President John F. Kennedy's assassination, and Mao II, which won the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction. In 1997, he wrote the bestseller Underworld, and in 1999, he received the Jerusalem Prize, which is granted to a writer whose work conveys the idea of individual liberty in society; he was the first American author to receive it. He is also an American Academy of Arts and Letters member.
