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

  • Simply the best...

  • 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.
