The Executioner's Song

Norman Mailer
T. OlmstedT. Olmsted

I mean, the most recent pub date was/is 1979. The Executioner's Song by Norman Mailer. (Robert Lowell's Collected Poems came out in 1997, but he died in '77). So nothing after 1979??? I am sceptical.

American Midnight: The Great War, a Violent Peace, and Democracy's Forgotten Crisis

Adam Hochschild
T. OlmstedT. Olmsted

Looking at Adam Hochschild's latest "American Midnight", which led me to an earlier book of his and was wondering if it has occurred to anyone to draw parallels between Ukraine and the Spanish Civil War?

Book Cover for: The Nineties: A Book, Chuck Klosterman

The Nineties: A Book

Chuck Klosterman
T. OlmstedT. Olmsted

@Unwise_Trousers This is similar to the premise of Chuck Klosterman's book, The Nineties, only he condensed it. He argues that culture (books, film, music) has innovated very little, if at all, since between 2000 and today, and uses a similar example. It's an interesting idea.
