Joan Didion

Reported California in the late sixties without ever pretending to be a neutral instrument. Slouching Towards Bethlehem watched the counterculture up close and declined to be charmed by it, and The White Album opens by saying we tell ourselves stories in order to live, which is quoted constantly and almost always as though she meant it approvingly.
