Perhaps the worst work I have read by didion
Maybe this didn't need to be published, was my initial thought--but I admit that some of the scenes and descriptions have lingered. Grr, Joan, you're frustratingly talented despite your snobbish ways.
simply honest, valuable to see what the landscape of these familiar states looked like in 1970.. Can’t believe didion randomly decided to drive thru here..
the notion that the south is actually the cultural touching point gives me an Ego and proud to be alive in ms

Perhaps I’m biased, given that I have also been a Californian stranger in the South and I found so much of this so terribly familiar, but Didion off the cuff is probably more eloquent and more insightful than many others will ever be with years of deliberation.

Didion sure can craft a sentence; and while this book resonates and her observations are relevant today, it sure did show how the elite city dweller bubble was formed a long time ago....
