Norman Mailer: Works and Days is our premiere digital project based on the book by J. Michael Lennon and Donna Pedro Lennon and edited by Gerald R. Lucas. It contains almost 1400 cross-referenced entries, images, and many full-text articles.
The Mailer Review, the official journal of the Norman Mailer Society, publishes articles, notes, creative works, interviews, cultural/biographical commentary, images, and book reviews relevant to the life and work of Norman Mailer.
The Structured Vision of Norman Mailer by Barry H. Leeds was published in 1969 and explores Norman Mailer’s major writing through the sixties. We present the full text of Leeds’ study in a new digital form.
This collection, assembled by J. Michael Lennon, features full-text introductions, prefaces, and forewords by Norman Mailer, including those to the works of Jean Malaquais, Abbie Hoffman, Jack Henry Abbott, Eugene Kennedy, and Mickey Knox.
An American Dream Expanded features letters, full-text criticism, essays, a gallery, and more that contextualizes and expands study of AAD. This project had its initial development by Jerry Lucas and his graduate students in NMAC 5108, spring 2019.
Coming Soon — A digital version of Lipton’s Journal: Mailer’s journal of self-analysis and personal growth he kept from December 1954 to March of 1955, edited by J. Michael Lennon and Susan Mailer.
Hosted by Justin Bozung and published twice monthly, The Norman Mailer Society Podcast highlights the people and projects that promote the legacy of Norman Mailer.
