Whether writing fiction, memoir, or trailblazing journalism, her gifts for narrative and dialogue, and her intimate but detached authorial persona, have won her legions of readers and admirers. Now Library of America launches its multi-volume edition of DidionP#39;s collected writings, prepared in consultation with the author, that brings together her fiction and nonfiction for the first time. Collected in this first volume are DidionP#39;s five iconic books from the 1960s and 1970s: Plt;iPgt;Run RiverPlt;/iPgt;, Plt;iPgt;Slouching Towards BethlehemPlt;/iPgt;, Plt;iPgt;Play It As It LaysPlt;/iPgt;, Plt;iPgt;A Book of Common PrayerPlt;/iPgt;, and Plt;iPgt;The White AlbumPlt;/iPgt; Whether writing about countercultural San Francisco, the Las Vegas wedding industry, Lucille Miller, Charles Manson, or the shopping mall, Didion achieves a wonderful negative sublimity without condemning her subjects or condescending to her readers. Chiefly about California, these books display DidionP#39;s genius for finding exactly the right language and tone to capture AmericaP#39;s broken twilight landscape at a moment of headlong conflict and change. A definitive collected edition of one of the most electric writers of our time, gathering her iconic books of the 1960s and 70s.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The ultimate Didion edition concludes with the brilliant and haunting works from her incomparable late phase.Library of America now completes its definitive, three-volume edition of one of the most electric writers of our time with the final seven books: Political Fictions (2001) offers a be…hind-the-scenes look at the American political landscape of the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s, its reflections on sound bites, photo ops, and an increasingly dysfunctional system still bracingly relevant. Fixed Ideas (2003), restored to print in this collection, traces the efforts of the Bush administration to stake new ground in old domestic wars in the wake of 9/11. Where I Was From (2003) explores the sunny myths and darker realities of Didion's native California, her personal recollections interwoven with sketches of water wars, sexual predators, mass incarceration, and corporate corruption. The Year of Magical Thinking (2005), which brought Didion the National Book Award and legions of new readers, registers the shock of the death of her husband, John Gregory Dunne, amid her daughter Quintanas ultimately terminal illness. Looking back on her marriage of four decades, she faces the abyss of a grief that turns out to be a place none of us know until we reach it. The Year of Magical Thinking: The Play (2007) is Didion's lauded dramatic adaptation of the memoir.Blue Nights (2011) is Didion's raw and haunting search for consolation amid despair.South and West (2017) revisits Didion's notebooks from a happier time, recalling a roadtrip with her husband through the American South, and 1970s California. Here are the achingly beautiful memoirs and masterful collections of reportage and observation with which Joan Didion crowned the final decades of her extraordinary career.

The novels Plt;iPgt;DemocracyPlt;/iPgt; and Plt;iPgt;The Last Thing He WantedPlt;/iPgt;, 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.
