More Gore in Store

This should be worth reading, whenever it’s published:

The life of Gore Vidal, the prolific and pugnacious man of letters who died in July, will be unfurled in a new biography written by Jay Parini, the novelist and scholar, and published by Doubleday.

Gerald Howard, the Doubleday executive editor and vice president, said on Wednesday that he had acquired the project from Mr. Parini, the author of novels like “The Last Station” ...

Mr. Howard said it would take about two years for Mr. Parini to complete his research and interviews for the biography. The book is planned for publication in 2015.
