NORMAN MAILER

Andrew Wylie, whose literary agency represents the Mailer estate, told The Associated Press on Tuesday that Skyhorse Publishing will release the book and that Random House has waved any reprint fees. He said that such details as the book's contents, title and date of publication were still to be determined. "Random House is proud to publish Norman Mailer, and intends to promote his work significantly for the centennial, in tandem with the publication by Skyhorse of the anthology," Wylie wrote in an email. “The Mailer family and Random House are united in support of Norman’s work.”A Skyhorse spokesperson was not immediately able to confirm there was a deal for the Mailer book. Random House does continue to publish much of Norman Mailer’s backlist.”Copyright 2022 The Associated Press.

An anthology of the late Norman Mailer’s writing that Random House allegedly had scheduled for his centennial in 2023, but backed off from, will be released by a publisher that has taken on such discarded works as Woody Allen’s memoir “Apropos of Nothing” and a Philip Roth biography written by Blake Bailey.
