"One of the very best books I've gotten in the last decade. Certainly one of the best titles. No new material for Didion fans but I liked reading these essays one after the other like a collection of poems. Didion tells it like it is, from Haight-Ashbury to El Salvador."
"The worst thing about the book is the clunky title, which seems to mean less and less the longer one thinks about it. For me the essays I was most interested in were the ones about politics and culture like Miami and Political Fictions, less so the personal ones such as Goodbye to All That and Where I was From. She's an amazing writer who doesn't bother with a lot of backstory--gives the reader the credit for knowing already what it is a reader ought to know."
