Norman Mailer was one of the most influential writers of the second half on the twentieth century and a leading public intellectual for nearly sixty years. Winner of two Pulitzer prizes he has written over thirty books. From the first essay published in 1948 to final writings in the year before his death, he wrestled with the big themes of his time and this book is an important addition for both students of later American literature and longtime Mailer devotees.
