The Fragmented Self In A Hyperreal Society: Identity Crisis In Don Delillo’s Point Omega

Authors : Assabaa Ibtihel . Douifi Mohammed .

Abstract

This article examines the representation of self-fragmentation in Don DeLillo’s Point Omega following the theoretical frameworks of Baudrillard’s simulacra and the hyperreal, alongside Jameson’s late capitalism. The article argues that the characters’ fractured selves reflect a larger postmodern condition, where reality is substituted by the hyperreal governed by ideological dominance. The analysis deepens our insight on how contemporary fiction addresses issues of selfhood and reality.
