Anyone who's read Norman Mailer's work - from The Naked and the Dead to The Castle in the Forest - knows throughout his career he's been grappling with questions of good and evil. That lifetime search for truth has led Mailer to his largest subject yet, God. In God: An Uncommon Conversation, Mailer speaks intimately about the nature of God, His power and creativity, and the three way relationship between God, the devil, and man. Mailer's theological worldview is surprisingly centrist: he abhors the false piety of fundamentalism while at the same time rejects the bleakness of atheism. His God is not limited to the God of Christianity, Judaism, or any other organized religion. Rather, he views God as an artist, a divine creator, a superior being in constant struggle to create a better version of humanity. Here, Mailer speaks with astonishing intimacy and wisdom.
