Evelyn McDonnell über Joan Didion – Essayistin, Stilikone und wichtigste Chronistin ihrer Zeit

 

Stell dir vor, du betrittst die Welt von Joan Didion und plötzlich wird alles ein bisschen cooler, witziger und nachdenklicher. Genau das passiert, wenn wir das Buch von Evelyn McDonnell aufschlagen. Die amerikanische Journalistin hat sich an die Fersen ihres Vorbilds geheftet: Joan Didion, Meisterin der scharfen Beobachtungen, Essayistin, Stilikone und wichtigste Chronistin ihrer Zeit.

So wie Didion 1975 Absolventen einer kalifornischen Hochschule riet: »Stürzt euch hinein in den Aufruhr der Welt«, stürzt McDonnell sich in Didions Welt und nimmt uns mit auf einen faszinieren Roadtrip, der in Didions Heimat Sacramento beginnt und uns über Los Angeles, Malibu, Manhattan, Miami und Hawaii zu ihren literarischen Topoi, stilistischen Sternstunden und persönlichen Schlüsselmomenten führt.

Schreiben war für Joan Didion mehr als nur eine Berufswahl, es war eine Mission – wer sie war, warum sie war, wie sie war. »Joan Didion und wie sie die Welt sah« ist eine Einladung, von ihr nicht nur Schreiben, sondern fürs Leben zu lernen: Skepsis, Scharfsinn, Selbstachtung, Stil.

 

»Erinnere dich, wie es war, du zu sein: Nur darum geht es immer.«

– Joan Didion, »Gedanken über das Notizbuch« (1966)

Dieses Buch ist mehr als eine Biografie, denn Evelyn McDonnell gelingt das Unmögliche: Uns daran zu erinnern, was es für Joan Didion bedeutete, Joan Didion zu sein. Und wie gerne wir wären wie sie.

Looks great by my bed!
Even my boyfriend keeps commenting how much he likes it. It's a usable piece of art! I will comment that the earring holes can be a little tricky since the leaves are turned all different ways. You have to be strategic with how you line up your long/dangle-y earrings with your studs so everybody fits and can be seen. A little tricky. But not a deal breaker - especially when it's so easy on the eye. The other slight negative is that this really isn't the best necklace holder. I would have thought, "No problem!" But it's a bit awkward. Especially if you actually intend to see all your earrings. You'll end up hanging most of your necklaces from the top most branch - but they slide down into the crevice to stay. Then you've got a lot of overlapping. And trickiness to retrieve the exact necklace you want with ease. However, this is still a fabulous earring tree. I can't say enough good things about it. Love the little basket for miscellaneous. Hair bands, lip gloss, etc.

Beautiful jewelry display
Color: Bronze-Tone
A few rough edges, but all in all well made and attractive. Holds lots of earrings and I can drape my necklaces on the tree. There's a nice bowl for bracelets and a nice tray that forms the base.

Gorgeous
Color: Bronze-Tone
It really is pretty to look at. To be honest arranging the earring on the tree is a bit of a pain, because the leaves tilt in different directions, and you have to play with it a bit to get the earrings to hang the way you would like them, but once you figure it out, they look very nice. I just adore it because it looks so pretty. I use the basket on the side for rings and watches, and the little plate in the base for a few miscellaneous pieces like necklaces or bracelets for balance and because they look nice. You'll love it.

gorgeous, and worth the purchase.
Color: Bronze
I wasn't sure about purchasing the jewelry stand at first (I had my doubts), but those doubts quickly disappeared upon the arrival/unpackaging of the jewelry stand. SHIPPING/PACKAGING It was nicely packaged, and not bent or damaged when I recieved it. The stand was a little wobbly (due to careless measuring of the copper balls, the fault of the manufacturer) THE PRODUCT The pictures are not how it is. Remember that. I thought the tree would be more three dimensional, you know- like a real tree. It wasn't, though. It was like someone took a 2D copper tree and made it stand up. It's still pretty, though, and holds a lot of jewelry. PRICE-WISE If you're looking at the price and it says $45 or more, don't buy it. I waited a month for the price to go down (I'm just a cheapskate) and it did. It went from $45 or so, down to $25 or so. So, unless its life or death, be patient and buy it when the price is right. OVERALL? In general, I was pleased with the product. It wasn't my dream jewelry stand, but it was worth my money and the wait.

Beautiful and sturdy
Color: Bronze, Color: Bronze
This piece is far superior than I expected. It is beautiful and sturdy. I don't have a lot of fancy jewelry. I just have several everyday pieces with a few unique pieces. This tree was perfect. It is attractive, like a unique piece of jewelry itself.
