Before Joan Didion Had John Gregory Dunne, There Was Noel Parmentel Jr.—A First and Searing Love

I am trying to find a free copy of her book "Slouching Towards Bethlehem" so we can all read it, has anyone read it already?

Why should I read Slouching Towards Bethlehem?
Slouching Towards Bethlehem isn't just a collection for hopeful writers or even for people who are young and unmoored. It's for all people who have lost their sense of place or sense of time or sense of self. It's for “the quiet ones” that people always tell you to beware.5 Apr 2013
It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

I've not come across it, but you might give World of books a try; they have good quality secondhand books.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
