Sinossi
Con un'introduzione di andrew o'hagan nell'estate del 1976 gary gilmore derubò due uomini. Poi li sparò a sangue freddo. Per quegli omicidi gilmore fu mandato a languire nel braccio della morte, e poteva aspettarsi con sicurezza che la sua condanna venisse commutata in ergastolo. In america, nessuno veniva giustiziato da dieci anni. Ma gary gilmore voleva morire, e la sua successiva battaglia con le autorità per il diritto di farlo lo rese una celebrità mondiale, e assicurò che la sua esecuzione si trasformasse nell'evento mediatico più raccapricciante del decennio.

Informazioni sull?autore
Norman Mailer was born in New Jersey in January 1923 and after graduating from Harvard, served in the US army from 1944-1946. His first novel, The Naked and the Dead, was published to immediate critical acclaim in 1948 - and was hailed by Anthony Burgess as 'the best war novel to emerge from the United States'.
He went on to publish both fiction and non-fiction, his books including Barbary Shore (1951), Advertisements for Myself (1959), The Presidential Papers (1963), An American Dream (1964), Armies of the Night (1968), Ancient Evenings (1983), and Tough Guys Don't Dance (1983). The Executioner's Song, first published in 1979, won the Pulitzer Prize in 1980 - an award which Mailer won twice during his writing career.
Norman Mailer died in November 2007.
