Kazin, Alfred, New York Times Book Review: "I believe that ARMIES OF THE NIGHT is just as brilliant a personal testimony as Whitman's diary of the Civil War, SPECIMEN DAYS, and Whitman's great essay on the crisis of the Republic during the Gilded Age, DEMOCRATIC VISTAS. I believe that it is a work of personal and political reportage that brings to the inner and developing crisis of the United States at this moment admirable sensibilities, candid intelligence, the most moving concern for America itself. Mailer's intuition in this book is that the times demand a new form. He has found it." |
