MARVELOUS . . . BREATHTAKING.
--The New York Times Book Review
"MAILER SHINES . . . Explaining Kennedy''s assassination through
the flaws in Oswald''s character has been attempted before, notably
by Gerald Posner in Case Closed and Don Delillo in Libra. But
neither handled Oswald with the kind of dexterity and literary
imagination that Mailer here supplies in great force. . . .
Oswald''s Tale weaves a story not only about Oswald or Kennedy''s
death but about the culture surrounding the assassination, one that
remains replete with miscomprehensions, unraveled threads and lack
of resolution: All of which makes Oswald''s Tale more true-to-life
than any fact-driven treatise could hope to be. . . . Vintage
Mailer."
--The Philadelphia Inquirer
"FASCINATING . . . A MASTER STORYTELLER . . . Mailer gives us our
clearest, deepest view of Oswald yet. . . . Inside three pages you
are utterly absorbed."
--Detroit Free Press
"MAILER AT HIS BEST . . . LIVELY AND CONVINCING . . .
EXTREMELY
LUCID . . . Mailer is fierce, courageous, and reckless and nearly
everything he writes has sections of headlong brilliance. . . .
[He] has found a way to make the dry bones of KGB tapes and his own
interviews stand up and perform. . . . From the American master
conjurer of dark and swirling purpose, a moving reflection."
--Robert Stone
The New York Review of Books
"THIS IS A NARRATIVE OF TREMENDOUS ENERGY AND PANACHE; THE AUTHOR
AT THE TOP OF HIS FORM."
--Christopher Hitchens
Financial Times
"Mailer has written some pretty crazy books in his time, but this
isn''t one of them. Like its predecessor, Harlot''s Ghost, it is the
performance of an author relishing the force and reach of his own
acuity."
--Martin Amis
The London Sunday Times
