South and west : from a notebook

Didion, Joan2017
Book
Joan Didion has always kept notebooks: of overheard dialogue, observations, interviews, drafts of essays and articles - and here is one such draft that traces a road trip she took with her husband, John Gregory Dunne, in June 1970, through Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. She interviews prominent local figures, describes motels, diners, a deserted reptile farm, a visit with Walker Percy, a ladies' brunch at the Mississippi Broadcasters' Convention.
