Rich with philosophical asides, historical speculations, personal observations, and literary judgments, this book ranges from the circumstances of Doctorow's own boyhood and early work to the state of modern society, forming a "report" by turns touching and funny, ironic and exalted, and, in its unique way, universally to the point.
