NATIONAL BESTSELLER • In these coolly observant essays, the iconic bestselling writer looks at the American political processand at “that handful of insiders who invent, year in and year out, the narrativeof public life.”
Through the deconstruction of the sound bites and photo ops of threepresidential campaigns, one presidential impeachment, and an unforgettable sex scandal,Didion reveals the mechanics of American politics. She tells us the uncomfortabletruth about the way we vote, the candidates we vote for, and the people who tellus to vote for them. These pieces build, one on the other, into a disturbing portraitof the American political landscape, providing essential reading on our democracy.
