Norman Mailer bibliography
This Norman Mailer bibliography lists major books[lower-alpha 1] by and about Mailer (January 31, 1923 – November 10, 2007), an American novelist, new journalist, essayist, public intellectual, filmmaker, and biographer. Over a fifty-nine-year period, Mailer won two Pulitzer Prizes and had eleven books spend a total of 160 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list.[1] Mailer's output included fiction, non-fiction, poems and essays. Biographer J. Michael Lennon called Mailer the chronicler of the American Century,[2] and a talent whose career has "been at once so brilliant, varied, controversial, improvisational, public, productive, lengthy and misunderstood".[3]

Notes
- Including short stories. This bibliography might be expanded in the future to include important uncollected works.
- Most from Lennon (2008a, pp. 518–519).
- This date is often listed as 1957 or 1958 (e.g. Adams (1974, p. 1) and Lennon (1986, p. 219) list 1957), but as Lennon & Lennon (2018, p. 29) explain, the City Lights publication is followed by the 1958 "Reflections on Hipsterism", so earlier than 1959 is unlikely.
- Abbreviated SF in Adams (1974, p. 4, passim).
- According to Lennon (2008a), sometimes abbreviated as WVN.
- According to Lennon (2008a), sometimes abbreviated as TOT.
- Most dates come from SFNM. Those that do not are otherwise noted.
