that would have been better if the interviewer didnt talk at all. he kept interrupting. Then saying what he thought Gore meant and not letting him correct him, which he kept trying to do. And then a few times there it seemed like he was trying to force him to say something or concede to something that he just wasnt going to. Gore is a brilliant man and the world needs billions more just like him
What a writer, he is among my favorites!!! Long live Gore Vidal!!! What would he have written in 2024? He wrote masterpieces. He understood philosophy, history, sciences and religious divisions for centuries. Sexual appetizers for delights. Scintillating and well thought out. What a brilliant mind. 🙏❤️🌎🌿🕊🎵🎶🎵
Gore Vidal was the greatest essayist this country has ever produced....and his keen mind is sorely missed
He's one of the American greats for sure, but I'd still give it to Edmund Wilson and Joan Didion.
What do you consider are his half-dozen best essays? Thank you in advance.
I think dreadfully underrated. More people should be aware and listen to this great man.
Thank you so much for posting and sharing all these clips and compiling them on your channel. It means a lot.
Thirty minutes well spent. This superb interview makes me want to re-read Gore's novels.
