Sinopsis
Aún no disponible en español — se muestra la versión en inglés.
The Names is the seventh novel by American novelist Don DeLillo, published in 1982. The novel, set mostly in Greece, is primarily a series of character studies, interwoven with a plot about a mysterious "language cult" that is behind a number of unexplained murders. Among the many themes explored throughout the work is the intersection of language and culture, the perception of American culture from both within and outside its borders, and the impact that narration has on the facts of a story. While some initial reviewers found The Names intellectually rich but unsuccessful, it became regarded in subsequent years as one of DeLillo's best works.
