Norman Mailer: Works and Days

Bibliography 1991

Bibliography for 1991 — the year of Harlot’s Ghost. Fifty-five entries from Lennon & Lennon’s Works and Days (91.1–91.52, including the lettered insertions 91.31a, 91.34a, and 91.47a). The overwhelming majority are advance excerpts, reviews, and interviews for the novel (91.26), recorded as rows pointing to its hub page; the year also brings two Vanity Fair essays (91.1, 91.2), Carl Rollyson’s biography (91.22), and Mailer’s appointment as New York State Author (91.44, 91.47). To the Lennon rows are appended nine secondary “about” rows — the principal 1991 reviews of the novel — for 64 rows in all.
