About the author
Norman Kingsley Mailer (January 31, 1923 – November 10, 2007) was an American novelist, journalist, essayist, playwright, film-maker, actor and political activist. His novel The Naked and the Dead was published in 1948. His best-known work was widely considered to be The Executioner's Song, which was published in 1979, and for which he won one of his two Pulitzer Prizes. In addition to the Pulitzer Prize, his book Armies of the Night was awarded the National Book Award.
Along with Truman Capote, Hunter S. Thompson and Tom Wolfe, Mailer is considered an innovator of creative nonfiction, a genre sometimes called New Journalism, which uses the style and devices of literary fiction in fact-based journalism.
Mailer was also known for his essays, the most renowned of which was "The White Negro." He was a cultural commentator and critic, expressing his views through his novels, journalism, essays and frequent media appearances.
In 1955, Mailer and four others founded The Village Voice, an arts- and politics-oriented weekly newspaper distributed in Greenwich Village.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The areas of "sexual deviance", "need for power", "religious piety" are all introduced. However, they all lack ownership. I almost felt like this whole book was based on a set of power points. Each emotional crisis is presented as if the author was going through it, but I was never convinced that this was truly Robert Hanssen's voice coming at me.About half way through, I actually became annoyed that there was not more meat on the bone. I believe he ran out of the power point and had forty more pages of filler to make it the right size length for publishing.
