Mornings with Mailer:
A Recollection of Friendship

At the age of 80, venerable literary figure Norman Mailer met a young writer, Dwayne Raymond, moonlighting as a waiter in Provincetown, Massachusetts, and hired him as his personal assistant. In the new book, Mornings with Mailer, Raymond recounts the four years they spent working together before Mailer’s death in 2007.

The author of more than 40 books, Norman Mailer was one of our country’s most distinguished writers. He was twice awarded a Pulitzer Prize for fiction, first for The Armies of the Night (1968), and later for The Executioner’s Song (1979), and his first novel The Naked and the Dead (1948) was named one of the best 100 English language novels by the Modern Library.
