Sobre este artículo
New York: Farrar, Strauss & Giroux, 1969. Didion's earth-shattering essay collection, Slouching Towards Bethlehem, was an immediate success on its publication. It showcases Didion's lifelong obsessions, from essays on the culture of her native state of California, to reflections on writing and her personal values in 'On Keeping a Notebook' and "On Self-Respect". A quintessential book and cornerstone of American essay writing, a transcendent reading experience for its many devotees.First edition, first printing. Quarter orange cloth and cream boards. Slightly bumped on corners, and marginal mild soiling. Bright and graphic dust jacket has very little edgewear and some soiling. Overall a very good copy.
Sinopsis
Slouching Towards Bethlehem is a 1968 collection of essays by Joan Didion and mainly describes her experiences in California during the 1960s. It takes its title from the poem "The Second Coming" by W.B. Yeats. The contents of this book are reprinted in Didion's We Tell Ourselves Stories in Order to Live: Collected Nonfiction (2006). The title essay describes Didion's impressions of the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco during the neighborhood's heyday as a countercultural center.
