Item #28212 After Henry. Essays, Joan Didion.

After Henry.

New York: Simon & Schuster, 1992. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine dust jacket. This is Didion's third collection of essays primarily published in The New York Review of Books and The New Yorker. In this collection, Didion covers ground from Washington to Los Angeles, from a TV producer's gargantuan "manor" to the racial battlefields of New York's criminal courts. At each stop she uncovers the mythic narratives that elude other observers: Didion tells us about the fantasies the media construct around crime victims and presidential candidates; she gives us new interpretations of the stories of Nancy Reagan and Patty Hearst; she charts America's rollercoaster ride through evanescent booms and hard times that won't go away.
