White Noise

A bar chart.

An illustration of a favorite novel, Don DeLillo’s White Noise.

One bar per chapter; taller is longer. Parts are color-coded as follows:

  1. “Waves and Radiation” — black,
  2. “The Airborne Toxic Event” — red,
  3. “Dylarama” — blue.

Note that the single chapter comprising “The Airborne Toxic Event” begins one-third of the way through the novel and ends just past the half-way point.

(Help yourself to an archive of the actual data, if interested.)
