Don DeLillo Permits Reprint of Early Hockey Satire Following Series Popularity
Author Don DeLillo has authorized a new edition of his early work 'Amazons,' a hockey satire he wrote in the 1980s. The novel, which DeLillo previously distanced himself from, has regained attention due to renewed interest sparked by the television series 'Heated Rivalry.' DeLillo is known for addressing major American themes in his fiction, but this particular book represents a departure into sports comedy. The decision to reissue the title comes after it was rediscovered by audiences.
