The Last Thing He Wanted Résumé

The Last Thing He Wanted Joan Didion

A thrilling and exhilarating exploration of U.S. politics in Central America from Joan Didion, the hugely acclaimed author of The Year of Magical Thinking.

It is 1984. Journalist Elena McMahon, watching her evasive, gruff father's life ebbing away before her, clutches at understanding him to grasp little more than air. But harder, keener forces impel her to do his bidding, to go naked into a 'situation' in Central America, because 'things were hotting up again'.

'An impressive, fast-talking, hard-boiled, wise-cracking, tough-guy of a novel.' Philip Hensher, Mail on Sunday

PRAISE FOR THE YEAR OF MAGICAL THINKING

'This brave book maps a year...when the world flipped over to expose the underside of cool where things go bad.' The Times
