Universally acclaimed when it was first published in 1968, Slouching Towards Bethlehem has become a modern classic. More than any other book of its time, this collection captures the mood of 1960s America, especially the center of its counterculture, California. These essays, keynoted by an extraordinary report on San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury, all reflect that, in one way or another, things are falling apart, "the center cannot hold." An incisive look at contemporary American life, Slouching Towards Bethlehem has been admired for several decades as a stylistic masterpiece.

评分现实地体现了美国“垮掉的一代”
评分因为是JoanDidion
评分very informative & addictive style! 招人烦又有点迷人的一点是:结尾总要巧 但一巧又在搅浑水 把简单搅复杂 深刻化直白 不宜感官为主逻辑不清者如我 有故弄玄虚之嫌 (和平学校那篇太绝了)
