Finished listening to…: Slouching Towards Bethlehem: Essays by Joan Didion π
This was a great book of essays, albeit, not always a happy one. It was a window into times and places that existed long ago, before my time. Didion’s writing is so vivid, that I can still “see” the portrayal of her experiences even after finishing it. The narrator, Maya Hawke, had a lot to do with this, of course.
I enjoyed the whole book, but the essays that resonated with me the most are:
- On Keeping a Notebook
- On Self-Respect
- I Can’t Get That Monster out of My Mind
- On Morality
- On Going Home
- Rock of Ages
