    Extractions: By Craig Offman Oct. 2, 1999 W ith Edmund Morris' "Dutch: A Memoir of Ronald Reagan" doubtless destined for the bestseller lists, editors are having to ask themselves a crucial question: Is this biography with a fictionalized narrator fiction or nonfiction? The question may sound preposterous, but toward the end of the week, some very influential editors were sitting on the fence. As of Thursday, Charles "Chip" McGrath, the editor of the New York Times Book Review, was hedging. "I'm thinking about it and talking to people at the bestseller list about it," he said. "Historically we've tended to follow the lead of publishers and bookstores. That's to call it what they call it, even if we don't necessarily agree." Referring to the day the book review goes to press, he added, "The next time I have to worry about it is Wednesday." No decision had been reached at another important bestseller list either. "I don't know yet I'd have to look into it a little more," said Daisy Maryles, executive editor of Publishers Weekly, although she added that she hadn't given it much thought. "There have been books of 'faction'" the hybrid of fiction and fact "that use a fictional demonstration to talk about a nonfiction incident. That happened with 'Schindler's List.' It was true, but [

    Extractions: "A really great novel does not have something to say. It has the ability to stimulate the mind and spirit of the people who come in contact with it." Norman Mailer , novelist, nonfiction writer, essayist, screenwriter, ex political candidate and public persona was born in Long Branch, New Jersey on January 31, 1923. In 1927 his family moved to the Eastern Parkway section of Brooklyn, where he attended P.S. 161 and Boys' High School. At the age of 16, he entered Harvard University to study aeronautical engineering. While at Harvard he developed an interest in writing. A short story, "The Greatest Thing in the World," which he wrote for the Harvard Advocate, won Story magazine's college fiction prize. Mailer was inducted into the army in March 1944, less than a year after graduating with honors from Harvard with a B.S. in engineering. His experience in the army as a surveyor in the field artillery, an intelligence clerk in the cavalry and a rifleman with a reconnaissance platoon in the Philippine mountains, gave him the idea for a novel about World War II. Shortly after his discharge he began writing The Naked and the Dead which was published in 1948. The novel, a critical and commercial success, was at the top of the
