Run, River
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Run, River is a 1963 novel by Joan Didion, her first.
In the 2003 book of essays Where I Was From, Didion turned a critical eye on this novel. She recalled writing it as a homesick girl lately moved from California to New York, and judged it to be a work of false nostalgia, the construction of an idyllic myth of rural Californian life that she knew never to have existed.
