An OTBKB reader named Lefty (or Chris Z) sent word that he recorded the conversation between Norman Mailer and his son, John Buffalo Mailer, that was at the New York Society for Ethical Culture last night. To hear the discussion, go to Sound Posse. I imagine that it will be quite interesting.

Who: Norman Mailer, John Buffalo Mailer, moderated by Dotson Rader.

Where: The New York Society for Ethical Culture, 2 W. 64th Street, New York NY.

When: Thursday, March 2nd, 7:00 PM

What:
A conversation between a father and his son on "What it Means to Live
in America
Today." An intergenerational sparring match as they discuss
