Joan Didion and John Dunne
For almost four years now, we have been confronted with death on an almost daily basis. It comes into our living rooms in real time and many of the deaths are sudden, as we see in the numerous wars around the world. In addition, many of the silent generation and baby boomers are crossing over to the other side also.
The Year of Magical Thinking (2005), by Joan Didion (1934–2021), is an account of the year following the death of the author's husband John Gregory Dunne (1932–2003).
