They faced one another with the Feather River in between. In two or three more hours? they would kneel again and drink.”Among prose stylists, Denis Johnson has few living equals. His finest moments bristle with beauty and potential; words blossom inward toward the enigmatic center of the story, disclosing possibility rather than meaning. Sentences line the pages like bombs waiting to detonate. Johnson’s economy...
