Summary:
"Distinguished American author and journalist
Joan
Didion
met her late husband, writer John Gregory Dunne, while the two were working in New York City when
Didion
was at Vogue and Dunne was writing for Time. They became wildly successful writing partners when they moved to Los Angeles and co-wrote screenplays and adaptations together.
Didion
is well-known for her literary journalistic style in both fiction and non-fiction. Some of her most-notable work includes Slouching Towards Bethlehem, Run River, After Henry: a collection of essays, Blue Nights, and The Year of Magical Thinking. It dealt with the grief surrounding
Didion
after the loss of her husband and daughter. Daugherty takes readers back through time, following a young
Didion
in Sacramento, through to her adult life as a writer. The
Last
Love
Song
reads like fiction; lifelong fans, and readers learning about
Didion
for the first time will be enthralled with this impressive tribute. Tracy Daugherty is the author of Hiding Man and Just One Catch"--Provided by publisher.
