Democracy

by Joan Didion


Review this book!

Jack Lovett has a brief fling with 17-year-old Inez Christian; Inez marries a U.S. Senator, but she and Jack meet periodically over the years, all over the world, and eventually run off together. Set during the Vietnam War, Joan Didion's novel is about not only human relations but also the failures of democracy.
