Synopsis
Library of America continues its definitive edition of one of the most electric writers of our time with a volume gathering her iconic reporting and novels from mid-career This second volume in Library of America's definitive Didion edition includes two novels and three remarkable essay collections with which she extended the compass of the extraordinary journalistic eye first developed in the celebrated books Slouching Towards Bethlehem and The White Album . Gather here are Salvador , a searing look at terror and Cold War politics in the Central American civil war of the early 1980s; Miami, a portrait not just of a city but of immigration, exile, the cocaine trade, and political violence; and After Henry , in which she reports on Patty Hearst, Nancy Reagan, the case of the Central Park Five, and the Los Angeles she once called home. The novels Democracy and The Last Thing He Wanted , the latter recently adapted for film by Netflix, are fast-paced, deftly observed narratives of power, conspiracy, and corruption in American political life. Taken together, these five books mark the remarkable mid-career evolution of one of the most dynamic writers of our time., In the 1980s and 1990s, as successive administrations hailed "morning in America" and took inspiration from "a thousand points of light," Joan Didion brought her brilliant and impeccably stylish prose to bear on the darker truths of American empire. This second volume in Library of America's definitive; edition of her collected writings gathers five classic books: Salvador, a harrowing, firsthand report from a Central American Cold War battleground; Democracy, widely considered Didion's finest novel, set in 1975 against the backdrop of the fall of Saigon; Miami, a portrait of a city turned staging area for clandestine and criminal ambitions; After Henry, incisive essays that dissect American politics in the Reagan era, living with brush fires in California, and the notorious case of the Central Park Five, among other topics; and The Last Thing He Wanted, an intricately plotted thriller loosely inspired by the real life conspiracies of the Iran-Contra affair. The Library of America, a nonprofit publisher, is dedicated to preserving America's best and most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts. Book jacket.
