Nobody Move: A Novel | Denis Johnson

2 posts | 11 read | 3 to read

From the National Book Award–winning, bestselling author of Tree of Smoke comes a provocative thriller set in the American West. Nobody Move, which first appeared in the pages of Playboy, is the story of an assortment of lowlifes in Bakersfield, California, and their cat-and-mouse game over $2.3 million. Touched by echoes of Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett, Nobody Move is at once an homage to and a variation on literary form. It salutes one of our most enduring and popular genres—the American crime novel—but with a grisly humor and outrageousness that are Denis Johnson's own. Sexy, suspenseful, and above all entertaining, Nobody Move shows one of our greatest novelists at his versatile best.

so-so

Book 4 of 2020. Johnson‘s version of a hard-boiled detective novel, but with no detective. These are all criminals working on a variety of double-crosses of each other. Quentin Tarantino would direct the movie.

BarbaraBB The cover is awesome but I think I‘ll skip the book! 5y

DreesReads @BarbaraBB I expected more from Johnson! Totally not my kind of book. 5y

so-so

The dialogue is funny and the pacing is fast, but the plot was so stereotypically "on-the-lam" fiction that I had a hard time relating to the initially promising characters. The peppy tone and Americana-style violence might do it for some readers, but I ended the novel feeling like I missed the train.
