AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

‘Utterly fascinating’ NEW YORK TIMES

‘An act of intimate storytelling’ VOGUE

‘A profound, rich document’ NEW STATESMAN

A deeply moving, newly discovered journal from one of America’s most iconic writers, Joan Didion, the author of The Year of Magical Thinking and Blue Nights.

A pile of neatly typed pages was found in Joan Didion’s office after her death. She had meticulously recorded her weekly sessions with a psychiatrist. As far as anyone knows, the pages had been read by only one other person: Didion’s husband, John Gregory Dunne.

The sessions began as a method of dealing with the heartbreaking alcoholism of their adult daughter, Quintana. Discussions broadened into revelations about Didion's own childhood, marriage, work and ‘what’s been worth’.

Writing was the way Didion dealt with life. Notes to John presents a riveting account of the therapeutic process, crafted with the singular intelligence, precision and elegance that characterise all of her work.

‘Compulsive … what an experience it is, watching Didion beat back tragedy with her brilliant mind’ TELEGRAPH

‘An incredibly intimate insight’ GUARDIAN

‘A tour de force from one of the best’ PEOPLE

‘Has a candour which refutes any charges of exploitation’ Julian Barnes, author of Departure(s), in the New Statesman
A profound, rich documentNew Statesman
Written with the immediacy of fresh recollection … Readers of her memoirs will recognise how these notes inform those final books – the striving to understand and the sense of futility that comes with it’ New Yorker

‘An unfiltered and unrestrained glimpse into domestic distress, the unavoidable guilt of motherhood, and the great burden of legacy’ The Nation

An unfiltered glimpse into the mind of the New Journalism poster girlAnOther
