Aprašymas

From one of our most iconic and influential writers, the best-selling author of the National Book Award-winning The Year of Magical Thinking twelve pieces never before collected that offer an illuminating glimpse into the mind and process of this legendary figure.

Here are six pieces written in 1968 from the "Points West" Saturday Evening Post column Joan Didion shared from 1964 to 1969 with her husband, John Gregory Dunne about: American newspapers; a session with Gamblers Anonymous; a visit to San Simeon; being rejected by Stanford; dropping in on Nancy Reagan, wife of the then-governor of California; and an evening at the annual reunion of WWII veterans from the 101st Airborne Association at the Stardust Hotel in Las Vegas. Here too is a 1976 piece from the New York Times magazine on "Why I Write"; from New West in 1978 a piece about tackling the short story; and from The New Yorker, a piece on Hemingway from 1998, and on Martha Stewart from 2000. In addition, two introductions done for books: one from Robert Mapplethorpe's Some Women (1989) and the other from director Tony Richardson's memoir The Long-Distance Runner (1993).

This collection of Didion's mostly early writing reveals what would become her subjects: the press, politics, California robber barons, women, the act of writing, and her own self doubt. Each piece is classic Didion: incisive, bemused, and stunningly prescient.
