Title: Homer and Langley
Author: E. L. Doctorow
Publisher: Random House
Year: 2009
224 pages
Read this as an alternative history of the Collyer brothers. Not unlike Star Trek (2009), the main characters wind up where they were before and similar to themselves, though dislocated in time. I'm sure Doctorow had great fun coming up with explanations for the inexplicable--why so many typewriters in the house? Why the windows boarded up? As always, Doctorow's prose is lyrical and evocative.
