According to Mailer's democracy, reread the majority of my work in spring and summer, the theme is dominant - apparently, my writing is largely about the United States. How much I love our country - this is obvious - how much I do not like it. - Norman Mailer, Preface to "The Time of Our Time" I first read what was written by Norman Mailer - it was part of the Vietnamese army - two things that came to my head I remember. The first thing suddenly appeared in my head. This Mailer's man is arrogant, self-righteous bastard.

At the beginning of the year, Gilmore gained an international reputation for having been sentenced to death by robbery and murder of gas stations staff and motel administrators. Forty years later, Jeremy Meeks, well-known as "The Hot Felon", attracted Merle to crime at the first fashion show in New York Fashion Week. Power is even more attractive - this is an imitation carrier born from a "wonderful" police picture gathering great attention online.

Both Norman Mailer and Truman Capote have unrestricted access to the facts about killers Gary Gilmore and Perry Smith. While studying Gilmore, Mailer gathered interview scripts, court records and documents. He also made nearly 300 interviews including 15,000 page manuscripts (Mailer 1020). Capote gathered many official records and interviewed (Capote Thanks page). Capote and Mailer carefully chose some truth from this information and portrayed their murderers in different ways.
