Miami by Joan Didion

3.0

Didion is marvelous with using detail to tell a story. "Miami" is not exactly what I expected. Rather than a cultural study of Miami of the 80s similar to what she did for California with "The White Album," this well-researched book drills into the Cuban communities of Miami, and tells some of the intersected stories of private sector foreign policy in Central America and the Caribbean during the Reagan years.
