First Edition of Joan Didion's Miami; Signed by Her
First edition of this "kaleidoscope of impressions, and a litany of violence, intrigue, vengeance, and political manipulation, and broken dreams" (Boston Globe). Octavo, original half cloth. Signed by Joan Didion on the half-title page. Near fine in a near fine price-clipped dust jacket. Jacket design by Koppell & Scher.
As Didion follows Miami's drift into a Third World capital, she also locates its position in the secret history of the Cold War, from the Bay of Pigs to the Reagan doctrine and from the Kennedy assassination to the Watergate break-in. Miami is not just a portrait of a city, but a masterly study of immigration and exile, passion, hypocrisy, and political violence.
