Joan Didion talks about her memoir Where I Was From. It’s about California: Combining history and reportage, memoir and literary criticism, and explores California’s romances with land and water; its unacknowledged debts to railroads, aerospace, and big government; the disjunction between its code of individualism and its fetish for prisons—and about her family and their place in California history.
interview conducted at KPFK in LA Oct. 29, 2003.
