“A Minority of One: An Interview with Norman Mailer.” By Christopher Hitchens. New Left Review, no. 22, March/April, 115–128. Wide-ranging and thoughtful probing of Mailer’s political commitments and how they evolved in the face of assassinations, the end of the cold war, and the growing power of corporations. Mailer’s relations with his intellectual mentor, Jean Malaquais, and his views of Presidents Reagan and Clinton are also considered.
