Joan Didion  is best known for her literary journalism and memoirs. In her novels and essays, Didion explores the disintegration of American morals and cultural chaos; the overriding theme of her work is individual and social fragmentation.  Slouching Toward Bethlehem is a collection of her feelings about the counterculture of the 1960s. The New York Times referred to it as “a rich display of some of the best prose written today in this country.” It has gone on to achieve a kind of “cult” status. A rare and sought after Modern first edition.

Description: Hard bound in dust jacket. First printing of the first edition stated on the copyright page. A nice copy with only the most minor wear to dust jacket edges. RARE!
