More Information
Details:	Mailer's remarkable 1000-page "nonfiction novel" tells the story of the murderer Gary Gilmore. After a series of crimes, including cold-blooded murder, Gilmore is apprehended, tried, and sentenced to death. He accepts his fate without a fight, believing that he should die--when he is granted a stay of execution, he attempts suicide. By means of a series of interviews, Mailer focuses not only on Gilmore's story but on the media coverage of the trial and its aftermath, and the insights it provides into the American justice system and the American psyche. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1980.
