This was a wonderful, unexpected gift from my friend Jeff. Out of the blue one day, I got a package from him that contained this and several other books he thought I would enjoy, and he wrote short notes in each one. I've never read Didion before, so I feel like I'm catching up on some "education" that I should have gotten in J-school.

I know Jeff wanted to read this one, too, so I plan to send it to him in D.C. once I'm finished. Who knows where it could go from there!
