Slouching Toward Bethlehem and The White Album should be required reading for those who lived through the 60's but were not paying attention.

My favorite of her essays was "On Self Respect" because of how spot-on it is!

This book was phenomenal.Even though it is dealing with subject of loss and death, It is so elegant and spare,like a the perfect string of pearls.Kudos to this lady, There is a whole lot of woman in that little person.
