"MARVELOUS...BREATHTAKING."--NY Times Book Review "MAILER SHINES...Explaining Kennedy's assassination through Oswald's character flaws has been attempted before, but none match Mailer's literary imagination and dexterity. This narrative weaves a story not just about Oswald or Kennedy's death, but about the surrounding culture, filled with misunderstandings and unresolved threads, making it more true-to-life than any fact-driven account could achieve....Vintage Mailer."--Philadelphia Inquirer "FASCINATING...A MASTER STORYTELLER...Mailer provides our clearest, deepest view of Oswald yet; within three pages, you are utterly absorbed."--Detroit Free Press "MAILER AT HIS BEST...LIVELY & CONVINCING...EXTREMELY LUCID...Mailer is fierce and courageous; his writing features headlong brilliance. He brings KGB tapes and interviews to life....From the American master conjurer of dark purpose, a moving reflection."--Robert Stone, NY Review of Books "THIS IS A NARRATIVE OF TREMENDOUS ENERGY & PANACHE; THE AUTHOR AT THE TOP OF HIS FORM."--Christopher Hitchens, Financial Times "Mailer has written some wild books, but this isn't one of them. Like its predecessor, it showcases an author relishing the force of his own acuity."--Martin Amis, London Sunday Times
