In 'The Silence', Don DeLillo presents a disturbing scenario where a mysterious technological blackout plunges the world into a state of pause. The novel follows Jim and Tessa, a couple who, after a plane crash, face a desolate and uncommunicative New York. Together with their friends, they try to understand the consequences of this global event, exploring how the fragility of our social certainties and the invisible threat of epidemics and cyberattacks transform the reality they knew. A profound reflection on technological dependence and human vulnerability in the 21st century.
