About this title: Didion's unerring sense of America and its spirit, her acute interpretation of its institutions and literature, and her incisive questioning of the stories it tells itself make this fiercely intelligent book a provocative and important tour de force from one of our greatest writers.

"After Year of Magical Thinking I read this. It is so California. I still remember her descriptions of So Cal during the aerospace boom. I really like her writing."
"Didion weaves a reflective narrative that is part state history and part personal memoir. I had more "oh, this is a great way to express that - I should remember this" moments than in any other reading project in recent memory. Beautifully crafted."
"Joan Didion is a bright-white goddess. This is a collection of essays about identity and place. Didion and her complex, affectionate yet deeply critical relationship to her native California and its history. Beautiful vignettes from Didion's childhood, heartbreaking and thorough analyses of the state's social, economic, and geographic history."
