The book is the account of the year after Didion's husband died. Their only daughter was also hospitalized at the time and those experiences feature in the book as well.
Interestingly, the New York Times review from 2005 says the book has moments that are "deadpan funny". Huh. I wonder if I read the same book.
My literary goal will be "read all 52 of Catherine's blog posts on her 52 books she'll read this year."
