Shortly after Babitz’s death, journalist Lili Anolik was granted access to a treasure trove: boxes of personal papers and letters discovered among the clutter in Babitz’s decrepit apartment, many of which were unsent correspondence addressed to Didion.Using these letters as a jumping-off point, Anolik’s book dives into a chronicle of the complex relationship between the two women.
