Joan Didion was born in California and lives in New York City. She's best known for her novels and her literary journalism.
Her novels and essays explore the disintegration of American morals and cultural chaos, where the overriding theme is individual and social fragmentation. A sense of anxiety or dread permeates much of her work.
From one of America’s iconic writers, a stunning book of electric honesty and passion. Joan Didion explores an intensely personal yet universal experience: a portrait of a marriage–and a life, in good times and bad–that will speak to anyone who has ever loved a husband or wife or child.
Several days before Christmas 2003, John Gregory Dunne and Joan Didion saw their only daughter, Quintana, fall ill with what seemed at first flu, then pneumonia, then complete septic shock. She was put into an induced coma and placed on life support. Days later–the night before New Year’s Eve–the Dunnes were just sitting down to dinner after visiting the hospital when John Gregory Dunne suffered a massive and fatal coronary. In a second, this close, symbiotic partnership of forty years was over. Four weeks later, their daughter pulled through. Two months after that, arriving at LAX, she collapsed and underwent six hours of brain surgery at UCLA Medical Center to relieve a massive hematoma.
This powerful book is Didion’s attempt to make sense of the “weeks and then months that cut loose any fixed idea I ever had about death, about illness . . . about marriage and children and memory . . . about the shallowness of sanity, about life itself.”
【人生在一刹那间改变】 【那一刹那稀松平常】 2013年5月24日上午,我在教室上计量经济学课,老头儿在讲台上拿着粉笔讲得正起劲,台下有一半的学生已经主动放弃。老头儿中气十足的声音,老电风扇嗡嗡的转动声,背后室友小声的说话声……所有声音纠缠到一起,像一团解不开的耳机...
評分 評分什么东西是你拼了命去珍惜,却还是留不住的?是亲人的生命。什么事情是你死磕都无法阻挡其发生的?是死别之后的丧恸。-莲花素手 经历过至爱亲人离世的人,也许都有过一种对于死亡的感知,从混沌到拒绝,从避讳到接受,都是一场巨大的心理世界的动荡,用海啸和地震来形容都不为...
評分牵手几十年的老伴先行一步,唯一的爱女身染重病,曾经的幸福让主人公无法专注于最后的人生之旅,在回望和记录家庭琐事中获得安宁。 相同的命运和写作背景让很多人以为,美国琼·狄迪恩的《充满奇想的一年》和杨绛的《我们仨》是悼念亡者的姊妹篇。事实上,前者更着力于...
評分在她给《生活》杂志写的第一篇专栏里,琼·狄迪恩透露,她和他的丈夫,作家约翰·格雷戈里·邓恩正在檀香山的皇家夏威夷酒店里,准备申请离婚。这时他们已经结婚五年,婚姻正在经历一段严重的危机,邓恩也经常在派对上半开玩笑地对朋友说,这段婚姻就是一周一周的外遇(week-to...
讓我想到瞭楊絳的《我們仨》...喜歡那段對grief的心理學描述:“波狀産生的軀體痛苦,每次持續20分鍾到一個小時,感覺喉嚨發緊,氣短,想嘆氣,腹部有空感,肌肉乏力,強烈的主體壓抑。”
评分Through the trivial recollection of memories, there would be a line of epiphany strikes like thunder.
评分A single person is missing for you, and the whole world is empty.
