What We Say: Through her intimate confession, one of America's most beloved and iconic writers reveals the year her life fell apart. In 2003, Didion saw her only daughter, Quintana, fall critically ill. Only days later, her husband John Dunne, the American writer, suffered a fatal heart attack. The Year Of Magical Thinking conveys Didion's vulnerability in her iconic frank style, and a heartbreaking story grips each page.

What They Say: “This is a beautiful and devastating book by one of the finest writers we have. Didion has always been a precise, humane and meticulously truthful writer, but on the subject of death she becomes essential” – Zadie Smith
