• The Spooky Art: Thoughts on Writing (2003) by Norman Mailer
  Throughout, Mailer ties in examples from his own career, and reflects on the works of his fellow writers, living and dead -- Ernest Hemingway, Herman Melville, Joan Didion, John Updike, Mark Twain, Samuel Beckett, Saul Bellow, William Faulkner, William Styron, and a host of others. In The Spooky Art, Mailer captures the unique untold suffering and exhilaration of the novelist’s daily life and, while plotting a clear path for other writers to follow, maintains reverence for the underlying mystery and power of the art.
