Download or read book The Year of Magical Thinking written by Joan Didion and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-02-13 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NATIONAL BOOK AWARD WINNER • From one of America’s iconic writers, a stunning book of electric honesty and passion that 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.

Book excerpt: In the Paris of the early 1960s, a host of French glamour magazines sprang up, featuring voluptuous nude pin-up girls plucked from the streets and thrust in front of hungry cameras in sleazy backstreet studios, apartments or remote country locations. Magazines like "Paradise”, "Sensation” and "Pink And Black” were at the forefront, featuring scores of these amateur but sexy young women in a multitude of alluring poses and settings. Jean le Baptiste has assembled from his own collection a stunning array of vintage photographs from these magazines, a visual feast which at once takes us back to the fashions and styles of more innocent decades, yet delivers a strong erotic thrill at the rediscovery of these wanton Parisian women in their sexual prime. PARIS PUSSY 4 contains 39 timeless and shamelessly provocative images from this bygone age.
