Joan Didion

informative reflective medium-paced

Honestly not my favourite work of Didion's, I just didn't connect with the subject material. 
informative reflective medium-paced

Didion’s outlook and criticism of California was and continues to be necessary. With the hope she had for her home state, she walks the line between cutthroat criticism and empathy.

Perfect for this Easterner to read on a trip to LA. I was most interested in the water wars and how Sacramento was built on wetlands. Time to watch Chinatown again.
