Norman Mailer's monumental nonfiction novel chronicles Gary Gilmore, the Utah double murderer who demanded his own 1977 execution, ending America's decade-long moratorium on capital punishment. Drawing on thousands of letters and interviews, it renders Gilmore's violence, doomed romance and defiant embrace of death with novelistic depth across nearly a thousand pages.
