  • Doctorow by Half
    The following document is an extract from For Argument’s Sake: Essays on Literature and Culture by Daniel Davis Wood, pages 275-280. It appears here, in PDF format, exactly as it appears in print. www.danieldaviswood.com DOCTOROW BY HALF E.L. DOCTOROW‟S ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD This review originally appeared online in The Critical Flame 3.18 (March-April 2012). EARLY IN ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD, HIS THIRD COLLECTION of short stories, E.L. Doctorow raises the surprising suggestion that the book he has written might not be worth reading from cover to cover. The suggestion isn‟t explicit, of course, but it emerges, un- mistakably, in the space between Doctorow‟s preface and his table of contents. Doctorow has long been one of America‟s most cele- brated novelists with a slew of modern classics to his name. He ex- ploded onto the literary scene with his début, Welcome to Hard Times, a loosely metafictional account of the birth of civilisation on the American frontier, and then he published a string of acclaimed and similarly postmodern historical novels including — most notably — The Book of Daniel, Ragtime, and Billy Bathgate. However, when he admits in his preface to All the Time in the World that he enJoys writ- ing short stories because they offer “the quick return of an aesthetic investment” (ix), he unwisely, if unwittingly, characterises his stories as less considered and less deserving of time and effort than the novels that have earned him his reputation. Then he reinforces this characterisation with a table of contents that promises a strange selection of work.

  • American Conversation E. L. Doctorow
    American Conversation E. L. Doctorow September 25, 2008 Archivist of the United States Allen Weinstein welcomed award-winning novelist E. L. Doctorow for an “American Conversation.” Doctorow’s work depicts various eras and personalities in American history and has been published in 30 languages. His novels include The March, City of God, Welcome to Hard Times, The Book of Daniel, Ragtime, Loon Lake, World’s Fair, Billy Bathgate, and The Waterworks. He currently holds the Lewis and Loretta Glucksman Chair of English and American Letters at New York University. The program took place in the William G. McGowan Theater of the National Archives Building. ALLEN WEINSTEIN: We're very fortunate, very privileged tonight to have as, uh, our guest one of the country's, one of the world's finest novelists, and I think most of you know at least some of E.L. Doctorow's dozen books, dozen novels: "City of God," "Welcome to Hard Times," "Book of Daniel," "Ragtime," "Loon Lake," "Lives of the Poets," "World's Fair," "Billy Bathgate," "The Waterworks," and of course the extraordinary book "The March," which is his most recently published book. We, uh... we're going to let our guest have a few introductory words on some of the issues that I'd think we'd like to talk to him about, but let me to say to begin with that this is a banner day for the American Conversations discussions that we've been having, and I thank you, sir, for joining them. Edgar Lawrence Doctorow had the good sense to be born in New York City and to live in the Bronx.

  • The Gnostic Drive for Narration in the Fiction of E. L. Doctorow

L. Doctorow Bi Jiancheng School of International Relations, Sichuan International Studies University, Chongqing, China Email address: To cite this article: Bi Jiancheng. The Gnostic Drive for Narration in the Fiction of E. L. Doctorow. International Journal of Literature and Arts . Vol. 8, No. 6, 2020, pp. 316-319. doi: 10.11648/j.ijla.20200806.12 Received : October 26, 2020; Accepted : November 12, 2020; Published : November 19, 2020 Abstract: As a top-ranking novelist in contemporary America, E. L. Doctorow is distinguished at his literary innovation of juxtaposing historical and imaginative texts, and is acknowledged as a “postmodern author”. However ，after surveying his creative doctrines and artistic concept, we may perceive a kind of spiritual ring that is out of tune with postmodern literature, but quite compatible with Gnostic principles. The Gnosticism emphasizes the “intuitive process of knowing” which can be reflected in Doctorow’s novelistic creation. This study intends to prove that in Doctorow’s fiction there exists an ongoing drive to relate the story which stems from the author’s Gnostic consciousness; the power of Doctorow’s narrative right derives from human desire to reestablish the lost spiritual connection with other human beings by means of mysterious signs and symbols of language. The endeavor to interpret Doctorow’s literary creation with the help of Gnostic spirits and attitudes may bring dynamics to Doctorow criticism, inspire the appreciation of Doctorow’s works, and attempt to redress his stereotypical title as a “postmodern writer”.
