My Book: Gore Vidal
Brief review of gore vidal's novel The City and the Pillar.
http://myplace.ch/vidal.html

Extractions: This is a new "revised an unexpurgated" edition of a book that shocked the American public in the late forties. Gore Vidal, praised as newest and brightest young writer in U.S., told with his third novel the story of the love affair between two normal all-American boys". The Times called it "The first serious American homosexual novel". I don't know if it is really the first one; but it's "a noble work" - to quote Thomas Mann. And it is hard to believe that this book has been written fifty years ago. Gore Vidal describes everything a young love is about - as it were today. This book is out of print at this time. You may try A Different Light for a copy. - Don't miss Yesterday's Favorites [Gallery] [Ké] [My Choice] ... [Menu]

Gore Vidal's Billy The Kid Review
A review of the film by William A. Graham scripted by gore vidal.
http://www.planetkilmer.com/btk.htm

Extractions: Pat Garrett ~ Duncan Regehr William A. Graham Gore Vidal Complete list of cast and credits. Gore Vidal's Billy the Kid (Turner Home Entertainment) is what some might refer to as a romanticized version of Billy's tale. I, for one, believe that Vidal did some fantasizing, too. After all, Billy the Kid/William Bonney is known for being a really miserable punk, who shot people in the back, rustled cattle and stole horses. Historically speaking, even criminals like Jesse James, had no good word for this Billy the Kid character. Nineteen or not, he was unspeakably bad! However, if you enjoy Westerns, you'll more than likely like this one. The cinematography was outstanding and the story-line is okay, if you can swallow Billy the Kid (Val Kilmer) as a caring and nice guy. Gore Vidal would like us to believe that poor Billy was "so" misunderstood in history prior to this film. There have been many questions to Kilmer's voice in movies being electronically enhanced I'm tempted to ask if his voice as Bonney wasn't electronically 'de'-hanced. Where is Val's voice in this role? This, no doubt, is another of his Chameleon type characteristics. This man, Val Kilmer, is without a doubt capable of portraying such diverse characters and this role made me think he was doing a poor Kilmer imitation. He spoke through those wonderful teeth of his and walked as though he has a corn that was very bothersome. Story or none, Val still carries this movie as he does most any he's in. Any Kilmer fan should seek this out, if only to giggle. The only other memorable character has to be Rene Auberjonois' role as Billy's Judas! He is pitiful, as he should be, and quite the perfect betrayer.

Creation (Gore Vidal) - Review
Yee favourably reviews gore vidal's historical novel, which geographically spans most of the fifth century civilised world.
http://dannyreviews.com/h/Creation.html

Extractions: Subjects Titles Authors ... Latest Heinemann 1981 Amazon A book review by Danny Yee In 445 BC Cyrus Spitama, the Persian ambassador to Athens, hears Herodotus reading from his "Histories" and in response recounts to his nephew Democritus the story of his life. He has served three Persian kings and traveled to India and China; himself the grandson of Zoroaster, he has met Buddha, Gosala, Lao Tse and Confucius! This is the thesis of Creation , a historical novel which geographically spans most of the fifth century civilised world and intellectually engages with an immense range of ideas about the fundamental nature of creation. While it's probably impossible to avoid shallowness in presenting complex philosophical and religious systems in a novel, Vidal does a surprisingly good job of it: if you don't know anything about Buddhism or Confucianism or Taoism, then you could learn quite a bit about them from Creation . He's also careful to avoid any anachronistic traces of Christianity (although, in contrast with Buddhism and Confucianism, it could be argued that Zoroastrianism pretty much is Christianity), though I found the omission of a meeting with a Jewish religious figure a little surprising. Although religious and philosophical ideas are at the core of Creation , they are never allowed to overpower the novel. There is plenty of historical (and particularly political) interest poisonings in the Persian harem, the internecine feuds of the Greeks, the warring states of India and China. Much of this will be best appreciated by those who already have some knowledge of the history, but it isn't assumed. One of my friends described
