5.0 out of 5 stars good intro into hismiasmic mind(see also cannibals and chri), July 8, 2002

John Ambrose (des moines,iowa) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Conversations with Norman Mailer (Literary Conversations) (Hardcover)

hello
i finally found one no one has reviewed! anyway i strongly recommend this book for anyone who is interested in norman mailer but maybe doesnt want to go thru a novel to get his ideas. Norman is an articulate person and the format of interview and dialogue here places his ideas and opinions in the center without allowing to much superfluity.
he talks about...running for mayor of new york, making films, women and men, vietnam, media(there is a good discussion with m macluhan too) politics, sex, art, writing...
that said i should say that i rented it from the lib, but it really is concise and informative with a minimum of repetition.
(and if you want a similar read but more essayish find "cannibals and christians").
