And the Word Was with Norman.” Article by Michael Glover. Independent, 24 September. Account of the same event described in 97.23a. Asked why he didn’t dig deeper into the personality of Jesus, as he had with Marilyn Monroe, Mailer said, “I wanted to tell the story, I wanted to reach people. I wanted to point out the compatibility between Christ and Marx, to re-emphasize the notion of caring.”
