“We tell ourselves stories in order to live.” That’s the title of a book by Joan Didion and also, perhaps, the nearest she got to a world view. Today, many people are mourning the loss of one of the greatest writers of our times. She showed us that non-fiction can be art, but only if you do it well enough. She showed us what it’s like to tell the truth.
Happy Christmas from me, Joan Didion and the people of North Shropshire
With any luck Boxing Day Boris should perform another u-turn ... so you can have a field-day on Sky ;) Looking forward to watching! ~ John
