I didn‘t hate it! but I‘m still anxious to check out more Johnson. For some reason I got kind of a The Sun Also Rises vibe from it. But instead of expatriated American writers moving recklessly through Europe it was an expatriated NATO agent and a mercenary moving recklessly through Africa. I don‘t know if that was Johnson‘s intent but it fits better than if I kept waiting for it to become a Robert Ludlum novel or something I think?
Just starting. This is the first Denis Johnson book I‘ve read. It wasn‘t necessarily my first choice and based on these comments in the back from other readers I‘m worried it may have been the wrong one. Welp here we go.

What I loved,without fail,
the laughing monsters,
the art of just sitting,
nights in the gardens of Brooklyn.
Spy thriller set in Africa where a NATO agent is sent to spy on his old comrade. Themes of global powers still playing the great game in Africa, terrorism, corruption and espionage. The first part was fun but the second part was disjointed and lost focus. 7/10
