E.L. Doctorow, RIP.

I just read that Doctorow passed away at age 84. Always sorry to see one of my favorites go.

My favorite Doctorow novel is the brilliant "Ragtime," which was made into an alright movie (Jimmy Cagney's last screen performance), and a pretty good Broadway musical. What are your favorite Doctorow works?
