The White Album

Description

Trade Paperback- NEW

First published in 1979, Joan Didion’s The White Album records indelibly the upheavals and aftermaths of the 1960s.

Examining key events, figures, and trends of the era – including Charles Manson, the Black Panthers, and the shopping mall – through the lens of her own spiritual confusion, Joan Didion helped to define mass culture as we now understand it. Written with a commanding sureness of tone and linguistic precision,The White Albumis a central text of American reportage and a classic of American autobiography.
