E, pp. 1, 8. The chief theme of this piece, based on Lyman’s visit to {{NM}}’s home in Brooklyn Heights, is religion: “For the last 50 years, my preoccupation has been religion. What might God be? I am searching for a notion of God that is alive to me.” Mailer also compares New York and Provincetown as places to work, reveals his summer reading plans (Cormac McCarthy and Don DeLillo), lauds Warren Beatty’s new film &#039;&#039;Bulworth&#039;&#039;, discusses abortion, fiction vs. nonfiction, the nature of [[98.7]], his plans for a sequel to &#039;&#039;Harlot’s Ghost&#039;&#039; ([[91.26]]), and J.F.K., who, he says, “is as vivid to me as Bill Clinton, and he’s been gone all these years.” In sum, a typical Mailer interview, wide-ranging, pungent and self-revealing.<br /> <br /> {{1980s|state=collapsed}}<br /> {{1990s|state=expanded}}<br /> {{2000s|state=collapsed}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Works]]<br /> [[Category:Works in the 1990s]]<br /> [[Category:Works in 1998]]<br /> [[Category:Article-Interviews]]</div>
