Underworld by Don DeLillo

Don DeLillo's sweeping novel begins on October 3, 1951, when Bobby Thomson's "shot heard round the world" wins the pennant for the Giants. It follows that home-run baseball, and a cast of characters, through fifty years of American life during the Cold War. Moving between the Bronx, the nuclear test sites of the desert and the waste industry, it deals with memory, secrecy, violence and connection. Widely considered DeLillo's masterpiece, it was a finalist for the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize.
