In 2009, at a humid dinner filled with our culture’s leading personages, [Gore Vidal] was presented with the lifetime National Book Award for his Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. Was Danielle Steel busy that year?The Personages greeted him with a prolonged and affectionate standing ovation, a favor he returned by talking about himself, alternately cranky and befuddled, for nearly an hour.

The Personages had been programmed for reverence. -- Andrew Ferguson | The Weekly Standard
