Publisher Description

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.
