The Time of Her Time
"The Time of Her Time" is a 1959 short story written by Norman Mailer, first appearing in his collection of short works, ''Advertisements for Myself''. The story depicts macho Irish Catholic bullfighting instructor Sergius O'Shaugnessy and his sexual conquest of a young, middle-class Jewish college girl, Denise Gondelman. The short story was adapted to film in 2000 by Francis Delia. On multiple occasions, Mailer has toted the "The Time of Her Time" as "the godfather of ''Lolita''."〔Norman Mailer, "The Time of Her Time," in ''The Time of Our Time'' (New York: Random House, 1998), 318.〕
== Publication ==
"The Time of Her Time" was first published in 1959 in the collection, ''Advertisements for Myself''. Mailer said that his publisher, Walter Minton of G. P. Putnam's Sons publishing, was brave for publishing the short story, despite its status as "a salacious object in its time."〔Ibid.〕 When Minton published it, "a great many of us, not only writers, but critics as well, novelists collaborated to a degree, in the sense that we were fighting the Philistines who wanted to hold literature back."〔"Norman Mailer Interview: Living a Literary Life," Academy of Achievement: A Museum of Living History, last modified June 20, 2011, http://www.achievement.org/autodoc/page/mai0int-7.〕 The story collection, ''Advertisements for Myself'', was published without any censorship, though "The Time of Her Time" was absent from the English publication.〔James Shapiro, "Advertisements for Himself," ''The New York Times'', May 10, 1998, accessed December 11, 2013, http://www.nytimes.com/1998/05/10/books/advertisements-for-himself.html?pagewanted=all&src=pm.〕
Mailer has maintained that "The Time of Her Time" has acted as the godfather of ''Lolita''.〔Mailer, "The Time of Her Time," in ''The Time of Our Time'', 318.〕 "Later, Minton used to love to say one of the reasons he published ''Lolita'' was he saw he could get away with it... he realized that for all the brouhaha over the dangers of publishing 'The Time of Her Time,' nothing had happened."〔"Norman Mailer Interview: Living a Literary Life."〕
