Remembering Norman Mailer through his books

By Margaret Bassett

This item tells what Mailer wrote, and something about what the books dealt with. Disclaimer: perhaps it takes someone who was enthralled with publication of "Naked and the Dead" to care so much for this author. A recent highlight was seeing him & Gunter Grass discussing their craft on C-Span.

Authors Bio:
Margaret Bassett passed away August 21, 2011. She was a treasured member of the Opednews.com editorial team for four years.

Margaret Bassett--OEN editor--is an 89-year old, currently living in senior housing, with a lifelong interest in political philosophy. Bachelors from State University of Iowa (1944) and Masters from Roosevelt University (1975) help to unravel important requirements for modern communication. Early introduction to computer science (1966) trumps them. It's payback time. She's been "entitled" so long she hopes to find some good coming off the keyboard into the lives of those who come after her.
