Summary
Mailer’s first novel, The Naked and the Dead, was an international bestseller, translated into numerous languages. Thus, from the very start of his career, Mailer has had a notable presence outside of America, and this chapter covers the criticism, reception, and translation of his works across the globe, from China to Slovenia to Russia to France and beyond.
