E.L. Doctorow, who died on July 21 at the age of 84, was not only a personal pal; he was a supporter of, investor in, and contributor to this magazine and, as the world knows, a gifted, original, and A1 4ber-relevant novelist.

In Cory Doctorow's wildly successful Little Brother, young Marcus Yallow was arbitrarily detained and brutalized by the government in the wake of a terrorist attack on San Francisco — an experience that led him to become a leader of a whole movement of technologically clued-in teenagers, fighting back against the tyrannical security state. In Homeland (Tor), Doctorow's sequel to Little Brother, Marcus finds himself once again risking everything to take on creeping tyranny and surveillance after California's economy collapses. Fast-moving and passionate, Homeland is every bit the equal of Little Brother — a paean to activism, to courage, to the drive to make the world a better place.
