Political fictions

Political Fictions is a collection of essays by Joan Didion that critically examines the American political landscape from the late 1980s to the early 2000s.

The book deconstructs the narratives of three presidential campaigns, the impeachment of Bill Clinton, and the role of journalists like Bob Woodward.

Didion's essays reveal how political narratives are crafted and how they shape public perception, providing a disturbing portrait of American democracy.
