tomasfish3 's review for:

4.0

A short book to follow up 1056 pages of Norman Mailer.

The long section on the road trip through the South is good, the section about California feels a bit more disjointed.

I did really enjoy it, but I saw another review on here that said this really read like it was from a notebook and not originally intended for publication, and I agree. It read like it was nearly a magazine piece, but not quite.

Enjoyable though and you really feel like you're actually in the South with Joan Didion.
