"Questions are posed," creates Norman Mailer, "in the desire they will start into richer insights, which will bring forth sharper questions." On this series of interactions, John Buffalo Mailer, 27, poses a series of questions to his daddy, challenging the reflections and insights of the man that has dominated and identified a lot of American words for the past sixty years. Their wide-ranging discussions take place during the period of a year, from July 2004. Set against the background of George W. Bush's re-election campaign and the conflict in Iraq, each considers what it means to reside in America today. John asks his daddy to look back again to World War II, and explore the parallels that can - and cannot - be attracted between that time and our current post-9/11 consciousness. As their interactions develop, the matters change from the political to the non-public to the political again, as they duck and weave around one another. They explore their shared admiration of boxing and poker, the type of marriage and love, tv, films, writing, and what it means to be always a part of this extraordinary family.
