Fixed Ideas
America Since 9.11
by Joan Didion; Frank Rich
Review this book!
Joan Didion's outraged essay decries the passivity with which most Americans have greeted the "new unilateralism" of the administration of George W. Bush in the wake of 9/11. Didion takes great pains in analyzing the government's opportunistic public relations campaign to sell the war on terrorism, and in explaining the "Bush Doctrine"--its obfuscating rhetoric and its potential for harm. The essay was greeted with an outpouring of reader reaction when it was first published in the New York Review of Books. Frank Rich of the New York Times contributes an introduction.

First Line
Seven days after September 11, 2001, I left New York to do two weeks of book promotion, under other circumstances a predictable kind of trip.
