By that reading it would come before Moby Dick and we can be certain Norman Mailer would not be happy with that. Perhaps a chronological order would have dispelled any confusion. For my part, I would have Naked somewhere in the top five of those listed, with Moby Dick and The Brothers Karamazov out front. Shades of Some Children of The Goddess!
