Due: Monday, January 23, in class

Using additional research and/or material from your handouts, select an actual historical character or historical theme (immigration, women's roles, race relations, labor movement, etc.) and show how Doctorow mixes historical facts with his fictional narrative.  What questions and concerns does Doctorow raise about the nature of historical truth?  How does the historical background Doctorow provides enhance the "allegorical" nature of the novel.

HMWK:
