Описание: Based on Mailer's own experience of military service in the Philippines during World War Two, The Naked and the Dead' is a graphically truthful and shattering portrayal of ordinary men in battle. First published in 1949, as America was still basking in the glories of the Allied victory, it altered forever the popular perception of warfare. Focusing on the experiences of a fourteen-man platoon stationed on a Japanese-held island in the South Pacific during World War II, and written in a journalistic style, it tells the moving story of the soldiers' struggle to retain a sense of dignity amidst the horror of warfare, and to find a source of meaning in their lives amisdst the sounds and fury of battle.

Описание: October 21, 1967, Washington, D.C. 20,000 to 200,000 protesters are marching to end the war in Vietnam, while helicopters hover overhead and federal marshals and soldiers with fixed bayonets await them on the Pentagon steps. Among the marchers is Norman Mailer.
From his own singular participation in the day's events and his even more extraordinary perceptions comes a classic work that shatters the mould of traditional reportage. Intellectuals and hippies, clergymen and cops, poets and army MPs crowd the pages of a book in which facts are fused with techniques of fiction to create the nerve-end reality of experiential truth. The Armies of the Night uniquely and unforgettably captures the Sixties' tidal wave of love and rage at its crest and a towering genius at his peak.

Описание: It has been called the single most historic event of the 20th century On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins met John F. Kennedy's call for a manned Moon landing by the end of the 1960s. A decade of tests and training, a staff of 400,000 engineers and scientists, a budget of billions, and the most powerful rocket ever launched all combined in an unprecedented event watched by millions the world over. And no one captured the men, the mood, and the machinery like Norman Mailer.
One of the greatest writers of the 20th century, Norman Mailer was hired by LIFE magazine in 1969 to cover the Moon shot. He enhanced his reportage in the brilliantly crafted book, Of a Fire on the Moon, which is excerpted here. Equally adept at examining the science of space travel and the psychology of the men involved--from Saturn V rocket engineer Wernher von Braun to the crucial NASA support staff to the three astronauts--Mailer provides provocative and trenchant insights into this epoch-making event.
Illustrating this volume are hundreds of photographs and maps from the NASA vaults, magazine archives, and private collections. These images document the development of the agency and the mission, life inside the command module and on the Moon's surface, and the world's jubilant reaction to the landing. This 50-year anniversary edition includes an introduction by Colum McCann and captions by leading Apollo 11 experts, explaining the history and science behind the images, citing the mission log and publications of the day, and postflight astronaut interviews.

Le 20 juillet 1969, l'humanit assista un moment historique: Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin et Michael Collins exau aient le souhait de John F. Kennedy de voir les premiers hommes marcher sur la Lune avant la fin des ann es 1960. Il fallut dix ans de tests et de pr paration, une quipe de 400 000 ing nieurs et scientifiques, un budget de 24 milliards de dollars et la fus e la plus puissante jamais lanc e dans l'espace pour donner naissance cet v nement sans pr c dent, suivi par des millions de personnes travers le monde. Norman Mailer a su comme personne restituer ce formidable d fi technique, cette incroyable aventure humaine.Norman Mailer, un des plus grands crivains du XXe si cle, avait t engag par le magazine LIFE pour couvrir la mission lunaire. Mailer a ensuite enrichi et approfondi son reportage de nouvelles r flexions dans son remarquable ouvrage, Bivouac sur la Lune, dont ce livre offre de longs extraits. Aussi l'aise pour pr senter l'aspect scientifique des voyages dans l'espace que pour aborder la psychologie des personnes impliqu es dans l'aventure, du concepteur de la fus e Saturn V, Wernher von Braun, aux trois astronautes, en passant par la formidable quipe technique de la NASA, Mailer offre un point de vue la fois incisif et provocateur sur cet v nement cl de l' poque.
Pour illustrer cet ouvrage, des centaines de photos et plans ont t s lectionn es parmi les fonds de la NASA, les archives de magazines ou des collections priv es. Ces images illustrent le d veloppement de l'agence spatiale am ricaine et le d roulement de la mission, de la vie l'int rieur du module de commande la sortie sur la Lune, en passant par la joie que ce succ s a suscit e dans le monde entier. Cette dition sp ciale anniversaire r unit des l gendes r dig es par les sp cialistes d'Apollo 11, qui d voilent l'histoire et la technique derri re ces images, citant le journal de bord, des publications de l' poque et les interviews des astronautes leur retour, ainsi qu'une introduction vocatrice de Colum McCann qui c l bre l'incomparable talent de Mailer pour transformer la science de l'espace... le poids de l'histoire... le souffle de la mythologie en prose.

Описание: A key backlist title from the highly acclaimed author of "The Naked and the Dead and The Fight". War her ex-Congressman, a professor of 'popular but somewhat notorious reputation', television personality and husband of the rich and beautiful Deborah ('a girl who would have been bored by a diamond as big as the Ritz'), Stephen Rojack lived the "American Dream". But his enviable life concealed a strange tension, the constant 'itch to jump', and when one day he finally cracks and strangles his luscious wife, he unleashes a personality of undreamt-of ferocity. A wanted murderer, Rojack is suddenly catapulted into an alien world of gangsters, crumbling tenements and downtown bars. Here, he meets Cherry, a small-time singer who ekes out her living in sleazy nightclubs, waiting for a break. She's the woman Rojack falls for, dangerously, desperately, tragically! A powerful exploration of one man's quest for depravity, "An American Dream" shocked the USA on first publication in 1965 with its graphic depictions of sex and violence. One of the key works of twentieth-century American literature, the novel's white-hot prose makes it, for many, Mailer's finest achievement.
