“Talking with Mailer.” Interview by Paul A. Attanasio. Harvard Crimson (Fall Book Supplement), October, 1, 8, 22–23. Excellent interview on The Executioner’s Song (79.14); Mailer comments on the problem “of getting myself out of the book,” and the two halves of 79.14: “the real meaning is in the second half, which is not as well-ordered and not as amenable to a simple narrative line.”
