Franklin Library leather edition of Norman Mailer’s “The Naked and the Dead,” a Limited edition, Illustrated by Alan E. Cober, one of the SIGNED 60 series, PERSONALLY SIGNED by NORMAN MAILER, published in 1979. Bound in brown leather, the book has brown French moire end leaves, acid-free paper, Symth-sewn binding, a satin book marker, hubbed spine, gold gilding on three edges—-in Good condition—except for ‘fading’ on edges of moire silk—and ‘moderate’ rubs to gilt on top. Norman Mailer, who was lived from 1923—2007, was born in New Jersey, of Lithuanian descent. At age four, his family moved to Brooklyn, which he called, “the most secure Jewish environment in America.” Despite the financial hardship during the Depression, Mailer’s family managed to send him to HARVARD where he majored in engineering. During the summer of 1942, Mailer worked in a state mental hospital in Boston and after graduating in 1943, he was drafted into the army at age twenty-one. Trained as an artillery surveyor, he was reassigned to the intelligence section of an infantry regiment when he reached the Philippines. “The Naked and the Dead” has three pairs of characters: General Cummings and Sergeant Croft, Lieutenant Hearn and Private Valen, and Privates Goldstein and Ridge. Hearn is used as a crucial structural device to bridge the gap between the enlisted men and their commanders. Hearn is a young liberal who lives with the times; he possess integrity and courage—yet he is afraid of command and making compromising decisions. After the war, Mailer moved to Greenwich Village. His personal life was as turbulent as the times in which he lived. Mailer built and nurtured an image over the years as bellicose, street-wise, and high-living. He drank, fought, smoked pot, married six times and fathered nine children. Mailer had numerous run-ins with the law, usually for being drunk, or disorderly, but was also jailed briefly during the Pentagon protests in the late 1960s. He later ran for Mayor of New York City and became involved in controversial sit-ins and protests, especially with his opposition to the Viet Nam war. Mailer won the National Book Award, the PULITZER PRIZE, and was often mentioned as a candidate for the Nobel Prize. 683 pages. I offer Combined shipping.
