Some writers define a generation; some a genre. Joan Didion did both... and much more. Famed as a prose stylist who captured and-in some ways-defined California's literary tradition, she had a tremendous range working in fiction and nonfiction equally, mastering every genre from novels, personal essays, and memoir to reportage on international affairs and forays into social justice. This collection encompasses it all in conversations with Sheila Heti, Hilton Als, Dave Eggers and more. Far from the evasive, terse minimalist she's often portrayed as, what emerges is a warm, thoughtful woman whose well-earned legacy promises to live on in readers and writers for many generations to come. Book jacket.
