Let Me Tell You What I Mean

From one of our most iconic and influential writers comes twelve pieces never before collected that offer an illuminating glimpse into the mind and process of this legendary figure. Mostly drawn from the earliest part of her astonishing five-decade career, Didion writes about a Gamblers Anonymous meeting, a visit to William Randolph Hearst's castle at San Simeon and on topics ranging from Nancy Reagan to Robert Mapplethorpe, Martha Stewart and Ernest Hemingway.
With an introduction by Hilton Als, this collection is classic Didion : incisive, bemused and stunningly prescient.
