...chat. He starts to talk about his next project, which will be a love story, something romantic that will give more prominent screen time to women, who typically have only cameo roles in his films. Despite being married for 23 years and having two kids, Beat allots little psychic space for women in his public persona. His brother insists that for all of Beat's showbiz bravado, at his core he is a shy man who has trouble forging intimate bonds with his family and friends. He is, Masaru says, a lonely guy: "The one thing I wish...

Most orphans sink into penury, drop out of school, suffer malnutrition, ostracism, psychic distress.

This was something else." But what? That is the question most contemporary authors would next address. Not DeLillo. His refusal to explain away Mr. Tuttle's presence in what otherwise looks like a realistic narrative makes The Body Artist an unsettling but thoroughly fascinating read. If Lauren really is, despite her belief to the contrary, unstrung, or if her experiences with Mr. Tuttle...
