	Books - End Zone

End Zone, Don DeLillo's second novel, is a fairly light and funny farce that preshadows much of his later, more mature work. Set at small Logos College in West Texas, End Zone is narrated by Gary Harkness, a blocking back on the football team during that school's first integrated season.

Gary spends time playing football, chasing a girl named Myna, and contemplating both nuclear warfare and extraterrestrial life. Its meditative but ultimately playful nature, spry dialogue, and deep but mostly unconnected themes make End Zone an enjoyable read, and perhaps the most easily accessible of DeLillo's early works.
