What I find exciting about Mailer and Graffiti is that graffiti is still here today (all over Europe), and it grows, and it actually is as deep as Mailer said it was, especially when looking at the world through Mailer’s lens. Mailer “determine(d) that a relationship of cause and effect should exist between writing and acting: ‘there is no communication unless action has resulted, be it immediately or in the unknown and indefinite future{{' "}} ([[Norman Mailer: Works and Days/Bibliography/Criticism#Adams (1976)|Adams (1976), pp. 3]]). I laugh so loudly when I think of Mailer in 1973 writing ''[[The Faith of Graffiti]]'' and then I think of all of the years I spent painting my name and obsessed with graffiti, and I wonder “Mailer, did you do this to me?” Thank you, Norman. | What I find exciting about Mailer and Graffiti is that graffiti is still here today (all over Europe), and it grows, and it actually is as deep as Mailer said it was, especially when looking at the world through Mailer’s lens.
