Books by Norman Mailer

Norman Mailer (1923–2007) was one of the most prominent and controversial American writers of the twentieth century. He won the Pulitzer Prize twice, first for The Armies of the Night in 1969 and again for The Executioner's Song in 1980. His other works include The Naked and the Dead, Miami and the Siege of Chicago, and The Armies of the Night. Mailer co-founded The Village Voice, ran for mayor of New York City in 1969, and remained a polarizing public intellectual until his death. The Executioner's Song is widely considered his finest work.
