Norman Mailer: Works and Days

Bibliography 2007

Mailer’s final year, and his most heavily covered. Publication of his last novel, The Castle in the Forest (07.10, 23 January) — the boyhood of Hitler narrated by a minion of the Devil — generated an extraordinary press response (07.107.30): dozens of article-interviews on Hitler, evil, incest, the unconscious, and his renewed feud with the critic Michiko Kakutani. Major interviews include the Paris Review “Art of Fiction No. 193” (07.31). In the autumn, On God: An Uncommon Conversation (07.39), ten conversations with J. Michael Lennon, appeared with its excerpts (07.38, 07.43). The Mailer Review printed early archival material — the 1942 Naked and the Dead play (07.45) and sixteen Deer Park letters (07.46). Norman Mailer died in New York on 10 November 2007. The year’s many obituaries and tributes (a separate secondary bibliography) are deferred to a later pass. Counts: 48 entries — chiefly article-interview and interview, with the novel, On God, the play and letter group, and several essays/excerpts by Mailer.
