Norman Mailer : a double life

Lennon, Michael J2013
Books, Manuscripts
Norman Mailer was one of the most famous writers of his generation. People who had never read a word that he wrote knew who he was because of his fame as a novelist or journalist, or his notoriety because of his womanising, his rivalries with other writers, his appearances on television, his political outspokenness and his prominence as a leading intellectual of his era. A provocative chronicler of the second half of the 20th century, both as a journalist and a novelist works such as 'The Naked and the Dead' and 'The Executioner's Song' vividly define a moment in American history.
