Get you a life like Gay Talese's: "In 1993, I did 'Don Juan in Hell' at Carnegie Hall. It was a benefit for the Actors Studio, with Norman Mailer as Commander. I played Don Juan, Susan Sontag was Doña Ana, and the Devil was Gore Vidal."

"Tom Wolfe couldn’t even get published today...Who would publish his attack on William Shawn and the New Yorker? How about the Flak Catchers? No way. Maybe 'Frank Sinatra Has a Cold' wouldn’t be published either. Too long!" - 93-year-old legend Gay Talese https://t.co/h9eWOdWyK1

A great interview with Gay Talese, who at 93 is one of the last living greats of the literary era.

This was a great read, Gay Talese is way too slept on these days!
I am thrilled to share the extensive interview @the_met_review - myself and @LouBahet - conducted with Gay Talese, one of the great writers of the 20th century. We spoke on the writing craft, celebrity, marriage, affairs, and even Trump. Do not miss this. https://t.co/dtaLkbuU3O

A good essay here on institutions, the hyper-individualistic impulse in American letters, and the enduring relevance of THE CAINE MUTINY, which nears the 75th anniversary of its publication. By @TheoLipsky

A stretch of Great Jones Street where the artist lived and worked now goes by “Jean-Michel Basquiat Way.”

This is a great essay in @the_met_review on Mailer, Wouk, The Caine Mutiny, and how a certain literature of the midcentury fell away entirely https://t.co/0OMUODgFQ0
