A couple weeks ago, Julia Chaplin put out a gypset reading list on her website (gypset.com). I'm proud to say I'd already read a few on the list, including On the Road by Jack Kerouac and the biography on Jane Digby. Joan Didion's Slouching Towards Bethlehem, a collection of stories and essays written in the mid to late 60s, was one of the few books on the list that I was able to get from the UM library. Didion's writing style is gorgeous, but she's such a downer. The story I liked best was "Where the Kissing Never Stops", centered around Joan Baez.
