Overview
Un texto clave del autor que mejor ha sabido radiografiar la historia norteamericana reciente, cuando se cumplen 20 años del 11-S.
Escrito con una fuerza y una urgencia que se mantienen intactas veinte años después, este texto contiene una breve e intensa reflexión sobre el atentado ocurrido el 11 de septiembre contra las Torres Gemelas que es extraordinariamente vívida y por momentos escalofriante.
DeLillo combina en este texto la emotividad de los hechos con la descripción del dolor de las víctimas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A key text from the author who has best captured the recent history of the United States, as we mark the 20th anniversary of 9/11.
Written with a force and urgency that remain intact twenty years later, this text contains a brief and intense reflection on the September 11 attack on the Twin Towers that is extraordinarily vivid and at times chilling.
In this text, DeLillo combines the emotionality of the events with the description of the victims' pain. It is an invaluable document about one of the most terrible episodes in recent history, which is, at the same time, a piece of extraordinary literary value that, with courage and delicacy, analyzes the attack as a symptom of a religious, technological, moral, and economic illness: the war between the past and the future.
