    The Life & Career of Denis Johnson with Ted Geltner

    Denis Johnson has quickly become one of my favorite authors. Train Dreams blew me away, then I read Angels with you all, and I finished Jesus’ Son about a week ago. I’m nearly done with Tree of Smoke as I post this, too. I knew I wanted to do an episode on Denis Johnson’s career, so there was only one guy to call: Ted Geltner. His biography of Denis Johnson is Flagrant, Self-Destructive Gestures (published last year). Subscribe to the FREE Newsletter
