1 December 2008, by The only thing worse than a bitter old man is a paranoid bitter old man.Less loving is Gore Vidal, who can't drop his decades-long feud even now that Buckley is dead. "He was out to get me from the very beginning," Vidal told VF. "He wanted me to write for his little magazine. I spurned him, and he didn't like that. Bear in mind that this was a very stupid guy who never read any of those books he referred to and that Americans, being such hicks, thought he was a great nobleman and a real gentlem

30 November 2008, by November 29, 2008 The New York Times list of the 100 Notable Books of 2008 doesn’t have any truly egregious entries — true, they have Thomas Friedman’s latest book, but there’s nothing like Liberal Fascism or its ilk, and there are some outstanding liberal and progressive books, such as Rick Perlstein’s Nixonland: The Rise of a President and the Fracturing of America. Maybe this is the time for Weekend Bookchat to solicit nominations for the best progressive books of 2008. Either leave your no

• ZERO: AN INVESTIGATION INTO 9/11 (2008)

29 November 2008, by INFO ZERO: An Investigation into 9/11, has one central thesis - that the official version of the events surrounding the attacks on 9/11 can not be true. This brand new feature documentary explores the latest scientific evidence and reveals dramatic new witness testimony, which directly conflicts with the US Government's account. Featuring presentations from intellectual heavy weights; Gore Vidal, and Noble Prize winner Dario Fo, the film challenges assumptions surrounding the attacks. In the w

• Creation

28 November 2008, by While waiting for the responses of my mba applications (finger crossed!) I tried to distract my mind with greater things. Creation is a novel by Gore Vidal which deals with some of the most ancient and difficult human questions: “How was the universe created? Why was evil created with good?”. Cyrus Spitama, the protagonist, is the grandson of Zoroaster and lives at the court of Darius , the great king of Persia. There Cyrus becomes friend of the king’s son Xerxes, futu

• Karl Bissinger 1914-2008

27 November 2008, by On Tuesday, portrait photographer Karl Bissinger passed away at the age of 94. He built his reputation with “lustrous black and white portraits” of some of the leading post-war cultural figures such as Tennessee Williams, Truman Capote, Gore Vidal, Katherine Hepburn and James Baldwin. His photographs appeard in the short-lived Flair magazine, edited by Fleur Cowles, as well as Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue. His work of this period has been collected into a book, titled The Luminous Years: Portra

25 November 2008, by Gore Vidal. Fuente: vanderbilt university En mi penúltimo día en Chile, en un intento desesperado porque la joven narradora chilena Claudia Apablaza se olvidé del palabrero de George Perec, la hice ingresar a empujones a una librería para conseguirle algo de Gesualdo Bufalino. La librería era pequeña y, después de estar en Ulises y Metales Pesados, pensé que no existiría ningún problema para mi alicaída economía. Pero resulta que en la vitrina me encontré con el libro de memorias de Gore

• I Lost an Idol Today…

17 November 2008, by This piece was started days ago, but I kept arguing with myself about finishing it. Much of my belief system stems from what I learned from this man, but only now do I see that my hero has feet of clay… I lost a beloved hero today- Gore Vidal. In an interview with Andrew Gumbel who asked him about Obama as president, Vidal replied “Slaves have a hard time making poetry,” he said, relishing the shock factor, “unless it’s got a beat.” Now Vidal makes pithy statements all of the time. It’s one r

• Gattaca (1997)

17 November 2008, by 4/5 Gattaca takes place in the not-too-distant future where genetically engineered children are the norm and babies made out of love are scorned and treated like dirt. They are forced to become the janitors to the better off, for no other reason than because their genes show a higher predisposition to heart disease or other illness. Their DNA matters more than their willpower. In this dystopian future we find Ethan Hawke as an "In-Valid" who dreams of going into space. He takes on the identity

• The Reading List

16 November 2008, by According to the Guardian (though I can't find the link right now), Obama is preparing for office by reading Lincoln, but the journalist was rather slapdash and didn't specify whether this was a biography of the scourge of the natives (AL fought them in the Black Hawk War of 1832) of Gore Vidal's wonderful novel of the same name. I hope it's the latter - GV knows the White House inside and out, having been friends of sorts with the Kennedys and related to Al Gore. If anyone knows how to get Wash

• Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace

16 November 2008, by Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace The United States has been engaged in what the great historian Charles A. Beard called “perpetual war for perpetual peace.” The Federation of American Scientists has cataloged nearly 200 military incursions since 1945 in which the United States has been the aggressor. In a series of penetrating and alarming essays, whose centerpiece is a commentary on the events of September 11, 2001 (deemed too controversial to publish in this country until now) Gore Vid

15 November 2008, by AMERICAN DREAMS LOST AND LOST SOME MORE.... I have done over 300 pages of work this year, political cartoons, essays, one acts, scripts, novella... on and on, and all for nothing. What truly angered me was the lectures about proper English- since one of my heroes has always been Francis Bacon who took the Italianate idea of the discourse and created the essay in English, so fuck you-- and my infinitesimally rare typos, making me re do things, and then, hitting me with a bill, which was never p

• The City and the Pillar

15 November 2008, by From page 1, the author’s distance and neutrality is very clear. And while this tactic of equidistance and lack of moral judgement might be effective when it comes to promoting equal rights or whatever, it’s more of a disservice if you want readers to actually care what happens to the people in the book. Because, personally, I didn’t really. Which isn’t to say it wasn’t a easy, enjoyable read - perfect for the tram rides to and from work. (Somehow, at home, i always get caught up in something el

14 November 2008, by Jump to Comments In today’s Miami Herald, my story about Dennis Lehane and his new book “The Given Day,” a big historical epic which I strongly recommend. It’s set in Boston in 1918-1919, leading up to the Boston Police strike — lots of real people figure, including Babe Ruth, although the main characters are fictional. It’s a big book, at 720 pages, but an absorbing read. And it gets you into the historical fiction groove, which I hope many people are already, with the upcoming Literary Seminar
