Well done!

"What movie star did Norman Mailer write about?"

Choose from Geography, History, Sport/Leisure or Entertainment if you can
answer correctly. If you don't know the answer or if you're wrong your next
roll is a 6 and you have a choice of all of those categories plus
Art/Literature again. So unless you're absolutely sure you're right, please
nominate a category for each eventuality.

Carol, I feel you want to say something about Mailer's life achievement
and are just waiting for provocation. Well, I won't rise to the bait!
But, since you are new to the game, I will offer this rehash of authors,
anonymous works, etc. with which Mailer shares space (so far) in this
category:

Henry Miller
Arthur Miller
Sleeping Beauty
Jane Austen
the words 'jeep' and 'quisling'
Bible: staff of life
J.M. Barrie: the crocodile who ate the alarm clock
George Sand
El Greco
Dennis the Menace and his dog Ruff
George Orwell
Bible: the seasoning mentioned thirty times
Georgie Porgie
Leonardo da Vinci
the cow who jumped over the moon / the dish who ran away with the spoon
Ezra Pound
J.M. Barrie: Captain Hook
Friedrich Nietzsche
the letter 'e'
Dr. Seuss
Lewis Carroll
Bible: Sodom and Gomorrah

Surely NM can be allowed to take a seat in this assembly.
