Where I Was From
by Joan Didion
by Joan Didion
All the Didion touchstones are here: the brutality of Californian existence, personal history, and so on. If you like her, you'll like it, if you don't like her, you'll freaking hate it. I'm in the former camp, and she weaves together bits of family lore, investigative journalism, history, and personal anecdote into this odd, weightless text. Some might call it rambling, but I prefer to think of it as skeining together this utterly unexpected multitude of discourses.
