which places inspired each author in to write their novels

zero k by don delillo is a novel about the quest
for eternal life. set in the future, it explores how
people use technology to preserve their bodies and stop
themselves from dying. the bodies are frozen, kept in
an enormous underground laboratory called the
convergence, on the steppe of kazakhstan. the steppe,
huge and empty, mirrors the narrator's opinion of this
new technology: living forever might sound wonderful,
but the people in the convergence aren't really living.
they are frozen, and time for them stretches eternally
like the steppe
