Very Good+ condition, pages are tightly bound, bright & unmarked. First Edition. The DJ is Very Good+ with cover edgewear and scuffing. "It is where Fidel Castro raised money to overthrow Batista and where two generations of Castro's enemies have raised armies to overthrow him, so far without success. It is where the bitter opera of Cuban exile intersects with the cynicism of U. S. Foreign policy. It is a city whose skyrocketing murder rate is fueled by the cocaine trade, racial discontent, and an undeclared war on the island ninety miles to the south. As Didion follows Miami's drift into a Third World capital, she also locates its position in the secret history of the Cold War, from the Bay of Pigs to the Reagan doctrine and from the Kennedy assassination to the Watergate break-in. Miami is not just a portrait of a city, but a masterly study of immigration and exile, passion, hypocrisy, and political violence." ; 9.20 X 5.50 X 1.10 inches; 238 pages; Box 28 .

Reportage resists easy definition and comes in many forms - travel essay, narrative history, autobiography - but at its finest it reveals hidden truths about people and events that have shaped the world we know. This new series, hailed as 'a wonderful idea' by Don DeLillo, both restores to print and introduces for the first time some of the greatest works of the genre. A surprising portrait of the pastel city, a masterly study of Cuban immigration and exile, and a sly account of vile moments in the Cold War. Miami may be the sunniest place in America but this is Didion's darkest book, in which she explores American efforts to overthrow the Castro regime, Miami's civic corruption, and racist treatment of its large black community.

Havana vanities come to dust in Miami," writes Joan Didion at the start of Miami, a book that looks beyond the city's bright pastel facades and sunlit beaches to shadowed scenes, dark history. Didion trains her penetrating vision on Miami's Cuban exile community during the 1980s, dissecting their hopes and fierce politics, their undying commitment to Castro's overthrow, and their tangled dynamic with successive American administrations since the failed Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961. Miami uncovers a world of "violence, intrigue, vengeance, political manipulation, and broken dreams," wrote The Boston Globe upon its 1987 release. In framing her story, Didion offers a hauntingly detailed portrait of the city at a time of booming cocaine-trafficking, racial strife, and skyrocketing murder rates. She also reaches back to the botched 1961 invasion, the Kennedy assassination, and the Watergate break-in, setting forth a disturbing history of America's foreign policy, especially its Latin America policy, during the Cold War. Download this first-ever e-book edition of Miami and let Joan Didion, working in prose the Los Angeles Times called "masterful," take you back to this south Florida city in an era of power plays, assassinations, and explosive political passions.
