South and West: From a Notebook by Joan Didion

4.0

A really beautiful short collection of observations on the South from a summer road trip Didion took in 1970. Gorgeous prose, as we expect of Didion, folded in with comments and anecdotes about her boredom and inner life on the trip. Not a book I would purchase for my own collection, but one I'm glad to have spent a humid summer evening with.
