The passing of E.L. Doctorow 1931 to 2015.


The passing of E.L. Doctorow 1931 to 2015.

Read Ragtime when I was in college and became a fan. Since then I have added 'Book of Daniel', 'Billy Bathgate', 'Loon Lake', 'Waterworks' 'Welcome to Hard Times' and I went to see his off-Broadway play 'Drinks Before Dinner'.

He was a major writer and a compelling scholar on the art of writing fiction.

He will be missed: http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/22/entertainment/e-l-doctorow-author-death/index.html
