> Norman Mailer has written his first novel in a decade,
> and Random House will publish it next January. "The
> Castle in the Forest," Mr. Mailer's first work of
> fiction since "The Gospel According to the Son" in
> 1997, is an account of Hitler and his family. Mr.
> Mailer has won two Pulitzer Prizes, one in 1969 for
> "The Armies of the Night" and one in 1980 for "The
> Executioner's Song." Since his last novel, he has also
> published two works of nonfiction, both in 2003: "The
> Spooky Art: Some Thoughts on Writing" and "Why Are We
> at War?" A spokeswoman for Random House said the new
> novel would run just under 500 pages. She confirmed a
> summary, posted on Media Bistro's Galleycat Web site
> (mediabistro.com/galleycat), that said Mr. Mailer's
> tale would be told through a mysterious narrator and
> explore three generations of Hitler's family,
> including incestuous relationships and family
> estrangements, while meditating on Hitler's evil. Mr.
> Mailer's book will come out just a month after Penguin
> Press publishes Thomas Pynchon's first novel in nine
> years, "Against the Day," set at the turn of the 20th
> century.
