A review by pearlpool
The Book of Daniel by E.L. Doctorow

challenging dark informative reflective sad tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

read this bad boy for class. pretty challenging and not up my usual alley at all BUT still a super cool example of historiographical metafiction and i enjoyed the narration voice :) always fun to have a truly unlikeable protagonist
