Norman Mailer, Part I
Host:
The Castle in the Forest (Random House)
Now in his eighties, Norman Mailer has forsaken the violence and declarative sentences of his signature style for the gradual somber analytics of a style like that of Thomas Mann. In this first of a two-part interview, we discuss this unexpected change and his new novel's subject: the childhood of Adolf Hitler. (Part II)
