WORLDS FAIR - E. L Doctorow

























Described as a semi autobiographical account of a boy named Edgar growing up in New York during the depression leading up to the World Fair in 1939.

I found it fully autobiographical and tedious.  Why he chose to do it this way when a full memoir would have made more sense to me anyway.

 Doctorow is a great writer but this like Loon Lake left me disappointed

THE SECRET LIFE OF J.EDGAR HOOVER - Anthony Summers

  A man who abused his position like no other public servant in history.  A vile little man.
