Annotation
Interview. Mailer admires the simplicity of Hemingway’s prose style and notes his influence on young male novelists who fall into the trap of writing like him. Views Hemingway’s suicide as a warning to other writers: “When you’re a novelist you’re entering on an extremely dangerous psychological journey, and it can blow up in your face.”
