Jesus' Son by Denis Johnson
American master Denis Johnson's nationally bestselling collection of blistering and indelible tales about America's outcasts and wanderers.
Denis Johnson's now classic story collection Jesus' Son chronicles a wild netherworld of addicts and lost souls, a violent and disordered landscape that encompasses every extreme of American culture. These are stories of transcendence and spiraling grief, of hallucinations and glories, of getting lost and found and lost again. The insights and careening energy in Jesus' Son have earned the book a place of its own among the classics of twentieth-century American literature. It was adapted into a critically-praised film in 1999.
Denis Johnson is the author of five novels, a poetry collection, and a reportage book. He has received numerous awards for his work, including a Lannan Fellowship and a Whiting Writer's Prize. He resides in the state of Idaho's northwestern corner.
