A great book for anyone who loves California or a Californian. Didion somehow weaves together flourishes from Lincoln Steffens, Jack London, and her own eighth grade graduation speech to paint a portrait of a state that constantly contradicts itself. I'm not quite sure if this book is a memoir, essay, or an extended poem. But I do know that I like it.
