Still considered to be most intelligent study of Mailer. Contains three chapters: on Mailer’s career, his relation to history, and his dualisms. Poirier’s Mailer is perhaps too postmodern, but Poirier is acute on Mailer’s endlessly modulating rhetoric, even if he is incredulous about Mailer’s cosmology.

Ross is the Babe Ruth of Mailer revilers.
* {{Anchor|Rother (1978)}}{{cite journal |last1=Rother |first1=James |date=1978 |title=Mailer’s ‘O’Shaugnessy Chronicle’: A Speculative Autopsy |url= |journal=Critique |volume=19 |issue=3 |pages=21–39 |doi= |access-date= }} Contends that Lawrence Durrell’s ''Alexandria Quartet'' caused Mailer to rethink his plans.
