Mind of an Outlaw

Resumen del libro

A major collection by one of the towering figures of American literature in the twentieth century, featuring a never-before-published essay and an introduction by Jonathan Lethem.

When Norman Mailer died on November 10, 2007, he was remembered as one of the most original, provocative, and outsized literary figures of the past sixty years.Now, six years after his death, it's time for readers and critics to start reconciling his literary legacy. Mind of an Outlaw, the first posthumous publication, covers the many subjects and themes Mailer wrestled with throughout his career-politics, personalities, art, literature, women, men, race, sex, and the systems of power that shape American life. Above all, Mind of an Outlaw reveals the man himself and the intellectual battles he fought throughout his monumental career.
