Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom
Signed first edition, 2003
Doctorow's debut novel, set in a post-scarcity, post-death future where reputation currency called "Whuffie" has replaced money. The protagonist manages the Haunted Mansion at a still-operating Disney World and fights to preserve it against competitors with better social capital. A black comedy about status, nostalgia, and the social dynamics of immortality. Signed by Doctorow on the title page.
