The University of Texas has acquired the archive of acclaimed American novelist Don DeLillo.
The papers of DeLillo, author of 13 novels and three plays, includes some 120 boxes of notes, drafts and typescripts for his work, besides articles, correspondence and unpublished material dating from 1959 to 2003, said officials from the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center last week.
DeLillo's first novel, "Americana," was published in 1971. He also wrote the critically acclaimed "White Noise," "Libra" and "Underworld."
