Book Synopsis I Told You So: Gore Vidal Talks Politics by : Gore Vidal
Download or read book I Told You So: Gore Vidal Talks Politics written by Gore Vidal and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2013-03-26 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I exist to say, ‘No, that isn't the way it is,' or ‘What you believe to be true is not true for the following reasons.' I am a master of the obvious. I mean, if there's a hole in the road, I will, viciously, outrageously, say there's a hole in the road and if you don't fill it in you'll break the axle of your car. One is not loved for being helpful." Gore Vidal, one of America's foremost essayists, screenwriters, and novelists, died July 31, 2012. He was, in addition, a terrific conversationalist. Dick Cavett once described him as "the best talker since Oscar Wilde." And Vidal was never more eloquent, or caustic, than when let loose on his favorite topic, the history and politics of the United States. This book is made up from four interviews conducted with his long–time interlocutor, the writer and radio host Jon Wiener, in which Vidal grapples with matters evidently close to his heart: the history of the American Empire, the rise of the National Security State, and his own life in politics, both as a commentator and candidate. The interviews cover a twenty–year span, from 1988 to 2008, when Vidal was at the height of his powers. His extraordinary facility for developing an argument, tracing connections between past and present, and drawing on an encyclopedic knowledge of America's place in the world, are all on full display. And, of course, it being Gore Vidal, an ample sprinkling of gloriously acerbic one–liners is also provided.

Download or read book Gore Vidal written by Robert F. Kiernan and published by Frederick Ungar. This book was released on 1982 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critical survey of Vidal's work, treating all of the novels, the short stories and plays as well. Vidal's greatness, says the author, lies in his talent for the small-scale: for the anecdote, the scene, the sentence, all created to the counterpoint of the risque and the elegant. A revealing biographical sketch is followed by an analysis of the Vidalian style, and then by an overall reassessment of the early successes and the later works.
Download or read book The Kennedys written by Peter Collier and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kennedys may well be the most photographed, written about, talked about, admired, hated, and controversial family in American history. But for all the words and pictures, the real story was not told until Peter Collier and David Horowitz spent years researching archives and interviewing both family members and hundreds of people close to the Kennedys. An immediate classic, The Kennedys combines intimate knowledge with a perspective free of obligations to family loyalties and myths, bringing the story of four generations of “America’s family” fully into view. Collier and Horowitz capture the strain of ambition; the dynastic ebb and flow; the invention of a mythic identity; the corrosive underside of the dream of Camelot—developed over four generations—that led one young Kennedy to say, “We broke the rules and in turn we were broken by them.” The Kennedys: An American Drama is a fascinating and brilliantly comprehensive history that brings together, for the first time, all the complex strains of the story of the Kennedys’ rise and fall. The authors have added new material showing the effect of the death of John F. Kennedy Jr., and the other family tragedies of the last few years, on the Kennedys and their mythic role in American life. In addition to The Kennedys, Peter Collier and David Horowitz are the authors of dynastic biographies of the Fords, Roosevelts, Rockefellers, and Fondas.
