Synopsis:

Doctorow's magnificent first novel follows the story of how the town of Hard Times in the Dakota Territory got its name. An early example of the brilliance of Doctorow, repackaged to match World's Fair and his other bestsellers. Reprint from Bantam.

Review:

"Doctorow's first novel, 'Welcome to Hard Times',...is a superb piece of fiction: lean and mean, and thematically significant....This is what E. L. Doctorow does in 'Welcome to Hard Times': he takes the thin, somewhat sordid and incipiently depressing materials of the Great Plains experience and fashions them into a myth of good and evil, city-founding and city-destroying. He does it marvelously, with economy and with great narrative power."

Kevin Starr, New Republic, 09/06/1975
