According to the passage, Doctorow's latest work ____ .

Edger Lawrence Doctorow is 55, and on almost anyone's
list he is counted among the leading serious American
novelists today. Although he is not simply a writer of
comedies, his books sell widely, and three have been
made into movies. Readers, some critics excepted, have
come to relish the blending of the fact and fiction that
marks his odd scrutiny of the American past. In his
recently published book, World's Fair, he turns his
historically inventive method on himself drawing heavily
on material taken from his 1930s boyhood.
