Praise for The Castle in the Forest
This remarkable novel about the young Adolf Hitler, his family and their shifting circumstances, is Mailer s most perfect apprehension of the absolutely alien. . . . Mailer doesn t inhabit these historical figures so much as possess them. The New York Times Book Review
Terrifically creepy . . . an icy and convincing portrait of the dictator as a young sociopath. Entertainment Weekly
The work of a bold and confident writer who may yet be seen as the preeminent novelist of our time . . . a source of tremendous narrative pleasure . . . Every character . . . lives and breathes. South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Blackly hilarious, beautifully written . . . [The Castle in the Forest] has vigor, excitement, humor and vastness of spirit. The New York Observer
Praise for Norman Mailer
[Norman Mailer] loomed over American letters longer and larger than any other writer of his generation. The New York Times
A writer of the greatest and most reckless talent. The New Yorker
Mailer is indispensable, an American treasure. The Washington Post
A devastatingly alive and original creative mind. Life
Mailer is fierce, courageous, and reckless and nearly everything he writes has sections of headlong brilliance. The New York Review of Books
The largest mind and imagination [in modern] American literature . . . Unlike just about every American writer since Henry James, Mailer has managed to grow and become richer in wisdom with each new book. Chicago Tribune
Mailer is a master of his craft. His language carries you through the story like a leaf on a stream. The Cincinnati Post
