Prolific, Elegant, Acerbic Writer 
By CHARLES McGRATH 

Gore Vidal, the elegant, acerbic all-around man of letters who presided 
with a certain relish over what he declared to be the end of American 
civilization, died on Tuesday at his home in the Hollywood Hills section 
of Los Angeles, where he moved in 2003, after years of living in 
Ravello, Italy. He was 86.
