Mostly a bit of re-arrangement today. I gave "The
Day Room" a dedicated page, and cleaned up the Plays
page. I archived the 'new adds' from 2002 and 2003 onto separate
pages (links below). I did add a new page for the "Valparaiso"
dust jacket copy.

Friend of the site Drew provided a link to a new letter co-signed
by DeLillo that appears in the latest New York Review of Books
(ongoing JFK documents issue). Item added to the Bibliography
(Essays, Letters section at the bottom). Also added a Wikipedia
link to the Links page, and cleared
out some dead links there.

Updated Odds & Ends for the

essay that appeared in Grand Street last year.

A new DeLillo blurb has been found; it's for Ann Lauterbach's
poetry collection If in Time. See the Bibliography
for the blurb, and Odds & Ends
for another connection between Lauterbach and DeLillo.
Also, there's a new piece of DeLillo writing in the current
issue of Brick (#74, Winter
2004). It's listed in the contents as "Don DeLillo: The remote
artists". I've yet to see the piece.
(thanks to Jeremy for both of these!)
