Losing the Story: Joan Didion on Hippies and Home

  • The Morningside Institute 91 Claremont Avenue Floor 11 New York, NY, 10027 United States (map)

One of America’s greatest journalists, Joan Didion became famous as a chronicler of the 1960s and its effect on American society. Join Nathaniel Peters (Morningside) as we discuss making sense of the hippies and losing a sense of home. We will read Didion’s essays “Slouching Toward Bethlehem” and “On Going Home.”

This seminar is the first meeting of our Fall 2024 series, Losing the Story.

Please RSVP as lunch will be served.
