Great Regulars: [Norman Mailer's] editor, Jason Epstein,

said of this period, "There are two sides to Norman Mailer, and the good side has won."

In 1984 Mr. Mailer was elected president of PEN American Center, the writers' organization, and was the main force in bringing together writers from all over the world for a much publicized literary conference called "The Writer's Imagination and the Imagination of the State."
