Joan's writing was so steely, her thoughts on politics outdated. However, in considering her conservatism paired with the time period this was written in, it's understandable.

I found out about her passing as I was starting this read, and I must say it made everything she stated twice weightier. The essay on water and its physical passage through cities was my favorite, It was touching.

Only really enjoyed two of the essays. Will give another Didion book a shot.

Maybe, when I reread it an other time. I will rate it higher. I enjoyed the writing style. Some topics were interesting some weren’t.
