Norman Mailer: Works and Days

Bibliography 1987

Bibliography for 1987 — overwhelmingly the release and promotion of the Tough Guys Don’t Dance film. Thirty-nine entries from Lennon & Lennon’s Works and Days (87.187.30, including the lettered insertions 87.2a, 87.3a, 87.10a, 87.10b, 87.11a, 87.14a, 87.23a, 87.26a, and 87.27a). Almost every row is a film interview or report pointing to the novel/film hub; five are broken out as their own pages (87.10b, 87.11a, 87.23a, 87.27a, 87.28). Other strands: a PEN fundraiser (87.3a), the James Jones Paris Review portrait (87.10), and an interview centered on “The White Negro” (87.29).
