Some readers of White Noise would argue that consumerism as it’s rendered in the novel is both the cause and effect of spiritual death. However, other readers would argue that consumerism has a more paradoxical quality in the novel: Consumerism both both elevates and diminishes us. It makes our lives more bearable and more unbearable at the same time. Which camp do you belong in. Defend your argument by making a claim and developing an essay with the Toulmin or Rogerian structure.
