Book review: Essay collection presents Joan Didion at her best Mims Cushing Author: Joan Didion Knopf, 192 pages, $23 Joan Didion, who is 86, has been published for more than 50 years. Of the 17 books she has written, a few have been fiction, (“Play It as It Lays,” “A Book of Common Prayer,”) but most have been nonfiction, (“Joan Didion: The 1960s and ‘70s,” “Slouching Towards Bethlehem” among them). One was a play. Most notable was her National Book Award for “The Year of Magical Thinking” (2005) following the sudden death of her husband, John Gregory Dunne, who collaborated with her on many projects. Dunne died in an instant from a coronary at the dinner table after having been at the hospital visiting their daughter, Quintana, who had septic shock, recovered, and ultimately died a few years later. Didion wrote the heartbreaking and profound book “Blue Nights” following the death of her daughter.
