Wednesday, January 18, 2023

Join Monarchs everywhere in reading Joan Didion's "The Year of Magical Thinking" and sign up to discuss the book with us and with King’s Professor of English, Jennifer Yonkoski '96.
"The Year of Magical Thinking" is Joan Didion’s account of the year following the death of her husband, writer John Gregory Dunne, and her attempts to make sense of her grief while tending to the severe illness of her adopted daughter, Quintana.
“Thrilling . . . a living, sharp, and memorable book. . . . An exact, candid, and penetrating account of personal terror and bereavement . . . sometimes quite funny because it dares to tell the truth.” —Robert Pinsky, The New York Times Book Review
