What is Collected Essays : Slouching Towards Bethlehem, The White Album, and After Henry about?

Three essential works that redefined the art of journalism by “one of our sharpest and most trustworthy cultural observers” ( The New York Times ). In these masterpieces of razor-sharp reportage, the National Book Award–winning and New York Times– bestselling author proves herself one of the premier essayists of the twentieth century, “an articulate witness to the most stubborn and intractable truths of our time” (Joyce Carol Oates,   The New York Times Book Review ) . Slouching Towards Bethlehem : America in the 1960s—a pivotal era of social change and generational divide. Here is Joan Didion on the “misplaced children” of Haight-Ashbury as well as John Wayne in Hollywood; folk singer Joan Baez and reclusive billionaire Howard Hughes; the extremes of both Death Valley and Las Vegas. Named to Time magazine’s list of the one hundred best and most influential nonfiction books, this is “a rare display of some of the best prose written today in this country” ( The New York Times Book Review ). The White Album : A New York Times bestseller, this landmark essay collection confronts the dark aftermath of the 1960s. From a jailhouse visit to Huey Newton, cofounder of the Black Panther
