hmm. perhaps it's not a good idea for me to have chosen Down and Out as my first foray into Doctorow-land. we'll see how it goes. i'm going to take this reaction as ample justification to drop the book, if i find myself slogging. i haven't gotten any farther with it, since i only read that book in the métro, and i haven't needed to take the métro in past few days.
