"Writing about the place that still calls itself the Golden State is impossible without reference to the counterpoint between the paradisiacal and the demonic, and this is nothing if not a splendid sample."--Peter Schrag, "The Nation
Conceived as a novelistic journey through the worlds of California, "West of the West" offers a vivid and diverse collection of writings on the state where extremes of every sort are dramatically evident in the weather, geography, and people. This richly fascinating collection represents the experience of California both physical and metaphysical, in fiction, poetry, essays, travel writing, confessions, reportage, and social criticism. The authors are native Californians, born-again Californians, exiles, emigres, critics, and visitors of every kind - Jack Kerouac, Joan Didion, Amy Tan, Simone de Beauvoir, Carey McWilliams, Tom Wolfe, Gore Vidal, Octavio Paz, Jean Baudrillard, Ishmael Reed, and, Allen Ginsberg - to name just a few.
