Description

This surprisingly genial conversation starts with the subject of Norman Mailer-as most conversations with Norman Mailer do-and goes on from there. WFB: "Oh, sure, I'm very anxious to discuss [Mr. Mailer's latest book, Armies of the Night]... [which] I think everyone should read, because I think it's an extremely interesting and enjoyable book, if that's the right word for it." NM: "Well, I wish someone on the right wing would write a book that would be as good, because it would be a great help to us on the Left. I wanted to help the right wing understand-" WFB: "You wouldn't notice it if it were written." NM: "No, I would notice it. You know I'm a lover of literature." WFB: "Yes." NM: "I think Evelyn Waugh is a marvelous writer.... Unfortunately, he's not an American." WFB: "Yeah. Unfortunately, he's dead." NM: "That too."
