I haven't read any of those guys (except Mark Twain), and I read a lot. Norman Mailer can't find anything better to write about than a murderer who chooses the firing squad over the noose. en.wikipedia.org Criminals don't interest me, which is why I think these people who moan and groan over whether a doctor should be held responsible for failing to remove the needle if the condemned starts to 'feel pain' are just flapping their jaws to feel the wind. The firing squad is so much more non-returnable. Maybe I'll have to start reading Wolfe just because Mailer doesn't like him.
