American master Denis Johnson's nationally bestselling collection of blistering and indelible tales about America's outcasts and wanderers.

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.
