Goodbye Norman Mailer ~ RIP
Quote from: Snoopy on November 10, 2007, 03:01:12 PMGoodbye Norman Mailer ~ RIPWho?
Pulitzer Prize-winning author Norman Mailer has died of renal failure aged 84, his literary executor has said. Mailer won the prestigious Pulitzer Prize twice, for The Armies of the Night in 1968 and The Executioner's Song in 1979.
Mailer's works were often filled with violence, sexual obsession and views that angered feminists. Married six times and the father of nine children, Mailer once said in an NBC television interview that he was worried "wimmin are going to take over the world".

Hamilton, who recently published his autobiography, maintained that he also wanted to escape media attention.
