" Essays of Gore Vidal " Clearly Gore Vidal endeared himself to our and especially to HIS ruling capitalist class

For some reason this rather big book was ON SALE at the Providence Public Library for one dollar. Was the person who selected it for the book sale politically illiterate ? I read most of these essays. Clearly this brilliant writer, Gore Vidal, endeared himself to our and especially to HIS ruling capitalist class . For working class people it is always instructive and enlightening to hear from a cynical , very observant, very astute INSIDER . You mean there is indeed a RULING CLASS in " OUR democracy " ? How shocking to innocent college students . I guess being hopelessly ALIENATED helps radicalize you . Gore Vidal was openly gay.
