...jest. Vidal is anything but a gadfly in his preoccupation with U.S. public affairs. He brings to the topic a mixture of nostalgia and estrangement. He inherited strong political yearnings; he idolized his blind maternal grandfather, Senator Thomas P. Gore, a populist Democrat from Oklahoma (who makes a cameo appearance in The Golden Age). But the young Vidal's firsthand glimpses of power as he accompanied his grandfather around Washington were eventually succeeded by the realization that he lacked the temperament to achieve such power himself. That is why his sympathy in his political novels goes out to history...
