## Description

Joan Didion’s hugely influential collection of essays which defines, for many, the America which rose from the ashes of the Sixties.We tell ourselves stories in order to live. The princess is caged in the consulate. The man with the candy will lead the children into the sea. In this now legendary journey into the hinterland of the American psyche, Didion searches for stories as the Sixties implode. She waits for Jim Morrison to show up, visits the Black Panthers in prison, parties with Janis Joplin and buys dresses with Charles Manson’s girls. She and her reader emerge, cauterized, from this devastating tour of that age of self discovery into the harsh light of the morning after.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My kind of intellectual
*by  on Reviewed in India 4 December 2019*

Ms Didion is a fine mind with a felicitous command over English. A delight to read. The white album is her defining piece!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 stars
*by  on Reviewed in India 3 September 2023*

I expected something more When I came to know this book was the New York time best seller but a bit disappointed.Some of the essays are most gripping but not all.

### ⭐⭐⭐ No Context
*by  on Reviewed in India 15 February 2022*

Joan Didion is - was - a fine writer, who wrote essays and books with felicity. I liked some of the essays in the book, particularly "The White Album". The essay on aspects of California, like the one about the governor's house, is excellent, as is the essay on lying in bed.The rest made no sense to me, because I did not understand the context. The problem with essays of this kind, is that they are bound to the cultural or political context in which they are written. If you don't understand the context, then the essays are meaningless, and the writing seems circular and tortuous.
