Descriere magazin:
Winner of the National Book Award - Marvelous . . . You get lost in World\'s Fair as if it were an exotic adventure. You devour it with the avidity usually provoked by a suspense thriller.-- The New York Times Hailed by critics from coast to coast and by readers of all ages, this resonant novel is one of E.L. Doctorow\'s greatest works of fiction. It is 1939, and even as the rumbles of progress are being felt worldwide, New York City clings to remnants of the past, with horse-drawn wagons, street peddlers, and hurdy-gurdy men still toiling in its streets. For nine-year-old Edgar Altschuler, life is stoopball and radio serials, idolizing Joe DiMaggio, and enduring the conflicts between his realist mother and his dreamer of a father. The forthcoming Word\'s Fair beckons, an amazing vision of American automation, inventiveness, and prosperity--and Edgar Altschuler responds. A marvelous work from a master storyteller, World\'s Fair is a book about a boy who must surrender his innocence to come of age, and a generation that must survive great hardship to reach its future. Praise for World\'s Fair Something close to magic. -- Los Angeles Times World\'s Fair is better than a time capsule; it\'s an actual slice of a long-ago world, and we emerge from it as dazed as those visitors standing on the corner of the future. --Anne Tyler Doctorow has managed to regain the awed perspective of a child in this novel of rare warmth and intimacy. . . . Stony indeed in the heart that cannot be moved by this book. -- People Fascinating . . . exquisitely rendered details of a lost way of life. -- Newsweek Wonderful reading. -- USA Today
