Oops, he did it again. Jewish-American novelist Norman Mailer, a
grumpy old fart at 82, takes a swipe at Japanese-American literary
critic Michiko Kakutani in a magazine interview recently. [PHOTOS OF
BOTH HERE: http://www.nydailynews.com/front/story/323790p-276748c.html]
Kakutani, 50 and the daughter of a retired Yale maths professor who
came up with the "fixed point theorem," is a Yale graduate and has
been a book reviewer for the New York Times for over 25 years, even
winning a Pulitzer Prize for criticism in 1998. In the interview,
Mailer, whose books have often been dismissed by Kakutani, uses
several terribly racist and politically vulgar (PV) terms, calling the Times
reporter a "one-woman kamikaze" [divine wind suicide bomber] and an "Asiatic, a feminist," who is
a "token" minority hire at the august national newspaper. So just who is
Michiko Kakutani? Click here [http://kakutani101.blogspot.com] and read
an informal, gossipy blogsite about her.

Note: I was shocked, shocked to read about Norman Mailer's feud with Michiko
Kakutani. Whatever reasons Mailer might have to feel abused by her
critical powers at the Times (and he does seem to have some good
reasons), Mailer should not have singled out ethnic background, of all
things, as part of his criticism. Kakutani is not "Asiatic." She, a
Japanese-American, is just as "American" as he, a Jewish-American, is.
Shame on you, Norman, for having a go at the race card. You lose
there.
