Leans a little too much on the California nostalgia for me, unfortunately. I’m sure it’s really good to those who are from there though!
Dnf as I got busy and had to return it. But I liked her essays that I did read and I think it’s an excellent lens into America during the transition from the late 60’s into early 70’s. Will have to borrow again to finish the last couple essays!
an intriguing and broad variety of essays written by an absolute powerhouse of a writer.

Didion doesn't give much context to her statements. I wasn't born in the 60's-70's and therefore lack knowledge on it, walking into this novel all about the American 60's-70's is jarring and difficult to consume/relate to because of this.
