Hitler was inhabited by the devil according to Norman Mailer

Philippe Grangereau interviews the American writer Norman Mailer on his vision of Hitler who, according to him, was inhabited by the Devil. "Joseph Stalin was a horrible, cruel and dangerous man, but all he did nevertheless remains within the limits of human comprehension. He did not bat an eyelid before a massacre, but it can be seen how such a man could be engendered by his era, by certain demanding and intense historical circumstances. He remains within the sphere of human nature, albeit the worst extreme. We cannot, however, understand Hitler. Hitler is a metaphor. He killed like a poet, through metaphors. He decided that Jews were a virus and they had to be eliminated to save civilisation. Stalin killed with his guts: this man is my enemy, he must be eliminated. ... For [Hitler], killing the Jews was more important than winning the war. He was inhabited by the Devil, there is no other explanation."
