A Man Melting into War: Militarization and Liberal Imagination in Falling Man

This essay expands on “Killing Politics: The Art of Recovery in Falling Man". It offers a reading of DeLillo's novel that goes beyond the notion of trauma, which has become a reflexive analytical framing for any 9/11-related work of literature. Moving away from trauma allows us to look into the incident of 9/11, as it appears in the novel, not only as an historical event, but also a figure for a larger historical transformation.
