The first nonfiction work by one of the most distinctive prose stylists of our era, "Slouching Towards Bethlehem "remains, forty years after its first publication, the essential portrait of America-- particularly California--in the sixties. It focuses on such subjects as John Wayne and Howard Hughes, growing up a girl in California, ruminating on the nature of good and evil in a Death Valley motel room, and, especially, the essence of San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury, the heart of the counterculture.

"New York was no mere city...It was instead an infinitely romantic notion, the mysterious nexus of all love and money and power, the shining and perishable dream itself."
評分First you don't really get her; then you come to hate her; then you come to love her, deeply. Didion太妙瞭。愛她。
評分感覺她的私人essay比journalistic non-fiction要寫得有趣且流暢,總之她的大部分觀點我是很欣賞的
評分之前也讀過奇想之年的英文本。How Joan Didion the writer became Joan Didion the Legend is beyond me.
評分有人說她是最後一位真正寫加利福尼亞的作傢。我書讀得少,無從比較她是否是“最後一位”。在二十歲齣頭的年紀去瞭紐約,在超級繁華大都市工作生活八年後迴到加州,定居洛杉磯,也遙望她的Sacromento Valley。這樣的去留和距離,首先使她很有資格講好那些故事。
