Joan Didion’s hugely influential collection of essays which
defines, for many, the America which rose from the ashes of the
Sixties. We tell ourselves stories in order to live. The princess
is caged in the consulate. The man with the candy will lead the
children into the sea. In this now legendary journey into the
hinterland of the American psyche, Didion searches for stories as
the Sixties implode. She waits for Jim Morrison to show up, visits
the Black Panthers in prison, parties with Janis Joplin and buys
dresses with Charles Manson’s girls. She and her reader emerge,
cauterized, from this devastating tour of that age of self
discovery into the harsh light of the morning after.
