Blue Nights
Blue Nights by Joan Didion
Didion has a very powerful, moving style. In ‘Blue Nights’ she delivers an honest account of losing her daughter. She expresses feeling on motherhood, marriage, illness and aging.
As a Mother, losing one of my children is so horrifying, so incredibly dark, that I cannot even imagine it in any type of detail. Simply thinking of a world without both of my babies in it, has a terrible affect on me. I can’t even go there. My heart broke for Didion, as it breaks for every parent who has lost a child.
