The Uptown Local: A Memoir of Joy, Death, and Joan Didion As an aspiring novelist in his early twenties, Cory Leadbeater was presented with an opportunity of a lifetime - to work as the personal assistant to a well-known writer whose identity was kept confidential. This chance encounter would change the course of his life forever, transforming not only his intellectual pursuits but also his personal struggles. Over the next nine years, Cory found himself immersed in Joan Didion's rarefied world, attending art openings, reciting poetry in the mornings, and dining with Supreme Court justices, all while struggling with the weight of his own past traumas. Despite the glamour and glitter of his newfound life, Cory's inner turmoil continued to simmer beneath the surface, fueled by the death of a close friend, his father's imprisonment for fraud, and his own addiction and depression. In this memoir, Cory weaves together the intricate threads of his experiences with Joan, revealing the complex web of relationships that sustained him through the darkest moments of his life.
The Uptown Local: A Memoir of Joy, Death, and Joan Didion Будучи начинающим романистом в возрасте около двадцати лет, Кори Ледбитеру представилась возможность на всю жизнь - поработать личным помощником известного писателя, личность которого хранилась в тайне. Эта случайная встреча навсегда изменит ход его жизни, изменив не только его интеллектуальные занятия, но и его личную борьбу. В течение следующих девяти лет Кори оказался погруженным в разреженный мир Джоан Дидион, посещая художественные открытия, читая стихи по утрам и обедая с судьями Верховного суда, и все это время боролся с тяжестью собственных прошлых травм. Несмотря на гламур и блеск его новообретенной жизни, внутренняя суматоха Кори продолжала кипеть под поверхностью, подпитываемая смертью близкого друга, тюремным заключением его отца за мошенничество, а также его собственной зависимостью и депрессией. В этих мемуарах Кори сплетает воедино запутанные нити своих переживаний с Джоан, раскрывая сложную сеть отношений, которые поддерживали его в самые мрачные моменты его жизни.
The Uptown Local : A Memoir of Joy, Death, and Joan Didion En tant que romancier débutant à l'âge d'une vingtaine d'années, Cory dbeater s'est présenté comme un assistant personnel d'un célèbre écrivain dont l'identité était secrète. Cette rencontre au hasard changera pour toujours le cours de sa vie, changeant non seulement ses activités intellectuelles, mais aussi ses luttes personnelles. Au cours des neuf années suivantes, Corey s'est retrouvé plongé dans le monde dispersé de Joan Didion, en assistant à des découvertes artistiques, en lisant des poèmes le matin et en déjeuner avec les juges de la Cour suprême, et tout le temps a lutté contre le poids de ses propres blessures passées. Malgré le mirage et l'éclat de sa nouvelle vie, Cory a continué à bouillir sous la surface, alimenté par la mort d'un ami proche, l'emprisonnement de son père pour fraude, ainsi que sa propre dépendance et sa dépression. Dans ces mémoires, Corey s'unit à ses expériences avec Joan, révélant le réseau complexe de relations qui l'ont soutenu dans les moments les plus sombres de sa vie.

Questo incontro casuale cambierà per sempre il corso della sua vita, cambiando non solo le sue attività intellettuali, ma anche la sua lotta personale. Nei nove anni successivi, Corey si trovò immerso nel mondo dilaniato di Joan Didion, visitando le scoperte artistiche, leggendo poesie al mattino e cenando con i giudici della Corte Suprema, e lottando per tutto il tempo con la gravità dei suoi traumi passati. Nonostante il glamour e la brillantezza della sua nuova vita, la confusione interiore di Corey continuava a bollire sotto la superficie, alimentata dalla morte di un caro amico, dalla condanna di suo padre per frode e dalla sua dipendenza e depressione.

The Uptown Local: A Memoir of Joy, Death, and Joan Didion Als aufstrebender Romanautor in seinen frühen Zwanzigern hatte Corey adbeater die Gelegenheit, ein ben lang als persönlicher Assistent eines berühmten Schriftstellers zu arbeiten, dessen Identität geheim gehalten wurde. Diese zufällige Begegnung wird den Lauf seines bens für immer verändern und nicht nur seine intellektuellen Beschäftigungen, sondern auch seine persönlichen Kämpfe verändern. In den nächsten neun Jahren tauchte Corey in Joan Didions spärliche Welt ein, besuchte künstlerische Entdeckungen, las morgens Gedichte und aß mit Richtern des Obersten Gerichtshofs zu Mittag und kämpfte die ganze Zeit mit der Schwere seiner eigenen vergangenen Verletzungen. Trotz des Glamours und der Brillanz seines neu entdeckten bens brodelte Coreys innerer Aufruhr unter der Oberfläche weiter, angeheizt durch den Tod eines engen Freundes, die Inhaftierung seines Vaters wegen Betrugs sowie seine eigene Sucht und Depression. In diesen Memoiren verwebt Corey die verworrenen Fäden seiner Erfahrungen mit Joan und enthüllt das komplexe Beziehungsgeflecht, das ihn in den dunkelsten Momenten seines bens am ben gehalten hat.
