About This Item
Tight, square, uncreased spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Very light shelf-wear. A typographic feast here with matching 1980s cover treatments by the great Lawrence Ratzkin, featuring tight spacing, a dynamic display face with distinctive abbreviated 'J', and elegant use of an italicized Garamond. A rare venture by Didion into international political reportage (she called the two-week trip 'terrifying'), Salvador details the dark tragedy of the Salvadoran Civil War, the US government's support of its far-right death squads, and the impact of the country's 1982 earthquake. 108 pp. New Journalism.
Synopsis
