Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. First Edition, First Printing. Poet and novelist Johnson's seventh novel won the National Book Award for fiction in 2007. Set during the Vietnam War, It is the story of William "Skip" Sands, CIA, engaged in psychological operations against the Vietcong and th…e disasters that happen to him. It is also the story of two brothers, Bill and James Houston, who drift out of Arizona and into a war where the lines between fact and disinformation, between reality and delusion have been erased. It is finally a story of human folly rare in our literature. Bottom end of spine bumped, with single, quarter-inch tear; previous owner's name in upper corner of front end page, o/w boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square, not remaindered. The dustjacket shows only minor surface and edgewear, no tears, no chipping or creasing, not price-clipped. A very decent copy of an important Vietnam War novel.

Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. No Jacket. Special Edition. Advance Reading Copies in paperback of Uncorrected Proofs, unread, in Near Fine condition. "TREE OF SMOKE is the story of William 'Skip' Sands--a spy-in-training engaged in Psychological Operations against the Viet Cong--and the disasters that befall him. This is als…o the story of his uncle, a CIA veteran known as the Colonel, and of the Houston brothers, Bill and James, young men who drift out of the Arizona desert and into a war where the line between disinformation and delusion has vanished. In its vision of human folly, and with its gritty, sympathetic portraits of men and women desperate for an end to their loneliness, whether in sex or death or by the grace of God, this is a story like nothing in our literature." [publisher copy] It was the Winner of the 2007 National Book Award for Fiction. "Like the project of the title--an intelligence report that the newly minted CIA operative William 'Skip' Sands comes to find both quixotic and useless--the Vietnam-era warfare of Johnson's rueful, soulful novel lives in shadows, diversions and half-truths. There are no heroes here among the lawless colonels, assassinated priests and faith-stricken NGO nurses; only villainy and vast indifference."--NYT 100 Best Books. "THE LAUGHING MONSTERS, Johnson's tenth novel, is a stunner: the story of Roland Nair, a rogue intelligence agent looking to make a big score in Sierra Leone amid the detritus and chaos of the post-war-on-terrorism world. Johnson's sentences are always brilliant, but it is in the interstices, the gray areas of the story, that he really excels."--David Ulin, L.A. Times. "And for his next trick, Johnson delivers a taut, Conrad-by-way-of-Chandler tale about a spy who gets too close to the man he's shadowing in Africa. As in any good double-agent story, Johnson obscures whose side Roland is really on, and Roland himself hardly knows the answer either. Johnson expertly maintains the heart-of-darkness mood--his antihero's story is an intriguing metaphor for [post-9/11 lawlessness]."--Kirkus. Bright, clean & tight paperbacks, unread, in Near Fine condition, w/sharp corners & crisp edges (TREE has slight beump on bottom edge & a Promotional Sampler CD bound in back cover), square & tight bindings w/no creases in spines & no jackets as issued.

Winner of the National Book Award for Fiction, TREE OF SMOKE was also nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction as Best Book "Once upon a time there was a war . . . and a young American who thought of himself as the Quiet American and the Ugly Americ…an, and who wished to be neither, who wanted instead to be the Wise American, or the Good American, but who eventually came to witness himself as the Real American and finally as simply the Fucking American.
