the year of magical thinking

By Joan Didion

The loss of a husband. The loss of a child. Separately, each is devastating. Taken together in quick succession, one must recalibrate the scales of grief to encompass it. Experience the remarkable journey of Joan Didion, the brilliant author who transformed her torrent of sorrow into The Year of Magical Thinking.

Originally a New York Times best selling memoir, The Year of Magical Thinking became a critically acclaimed Broadway production. In the regional premiere of this exquisite work, Barbra Berlovitz brings Didion's inspiring narrative to life with all the iconic traits of the author's singular prose style. Her account is intimate, poignant, profound.
