Besides writing novels with admirably short titles (which makes it easy for people compiling lists of his works), Gore Vidal is that rarest of birds, a patrician gadfly whose opinions put him squarely out of the mainstream. Among his contentions: that there is no two party system in the United States, there is only the Property Party, that comes with two slightly different flavors; that the U. S. would be better off going back to its old isolationist policies rather than sticking its imperial nose all over the globe; and that there are no such things as homosexuals or heterosexuals, there are only homosexual or heterosexual acts. I agree with at least two of these propositions.
Book Count: 1014.
I agree with all of them...
