Description

No profession in contemporary American characters reaches once so brilliant, varied, and questionable as that of Norman Mailer. In a period greater than six years, Mailer has looked into topics ranging from World-War II to Ancient Egypt, from the march to the Government to Marilyn Monroe, from Henry Miller and Mohammad Ali to Jesus Christ. Today, within The Castle in the Forest, his first significant work of fiction in greater than a decade, Mailer provides what might be his consummate literary undertaking: He's attempted to discover the evil of Adolf Hitler. The narrator, a mystical SS guy who's later revealed to be a great existence, provides us young Adolf from delivery, in addition to Hitler’s dad and mother, his sisters and friends, and the personal information on his youth and adolescence.A tapestry of memorable characters, The Castle in the Woodland provides its fun turns and shocks with amazing insight in to the character of the battle between good and evil that exists in us all.
