ビリー・バスゲイト (Tankobon Hardcover)

Billy Bathgate's innocence clashes with the violent world around him, making me wonder what inspired Doctorow to explore this moral gray area.

The detailed depiction of New York during the Great Depression made the crime world feel incredibly authentic. I'm curious how much research went into creating this atmosphere.

Their bond feels complex, blending admiration and distrust. Did anyone else feel conflicted about rooting for these characters?
