Run, River
by Joan Didion
Review this book!
In Joan Didion's first novel (1963), published when she was still in her 20s, Lily McClellan's husband shoots and kills Lily's lover, an event that leads to an examination of their 19-year marriage. Didion's assured debut is, essentially, about the union of a passive woman who doesn't know what she wants from life, and a man possessed by private furies.
