Jesus' Son - Denis Johnson

Descriere

An intense collection of interconnected stories that portray life through the eyes of a young man in a small Iowa town, by the author of Angels and Resuscitation of a Hanged Man. Each story's perception distinguishes Johnson's hauntingly beautiful vision of American life. Jesus' Son is a visionary chronicle of dreamers, addicts, and lost souls. These stories tell of spiraling grief and transcendence, of rock bottom and redemption, of getting lost and found and lost again. The raw beauty and careening energy of Denis Johnson's prose has earned this book a place among the classics of twentieth-century American literature.
