Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

The novelists interpretes and dramatizes the October 1967 anti-war demonstration in Washington and the issues and politics involved.


Review:

"I believe that ARMIES OF THE NIGHT is just as brilliant a personal testimony as Whitman's diary of the Civil War, SPECIMEN DAYS, and Whitman's great essay on the crisis of the Republic during the Gilded Age, DEMOCRATIC VISTAS. I believe that it is a work of personal and political reportage that brings to the inner and developing crisis of the United States at this moment admirable sensibilities, candid intelligence, the most moving concern for America itself. Mailer's intuition in this book is that the times demand a new form. He has found it."

Alfred Kazin, New York Times Book Review, 05/05/1968

Book Description: Plume, 1995. PaperBack. Book Condition: New. October 21, 1967; Washington, D.C. Anywhere from 20,000 to 200,000 protestors - depending on the paper you read - are marching to end the war in Vietnam. Helicopters hover menacingly overhead. Federal marshals with fixed bayonets (minus the flowers) await them on the steps of the Pentagon. Among the marchers is Norman Mailer, from whose own singular participation in the day's events and his even more extraordinary perceptions comes this classical work that shatters the mold of traditional reportage: a book in which facts are fused with techniques of fiction to create the nerve-end reality of experiential truth. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award. 288p. Bookseller Inventory # 2168477
