I was somewhat disappointed in this collection of essays written from 1952 to 1972. I expected to find the essays a lively and fascinating look at the time frame, but they seemed more like the personal ramblings of a diary. I thought several essays were difficult to follow and desperately needed an editor. It was worth a try, but I tend to think Vidal's novels were better.
