Description
Denis Johnson's Tree of Smoke is a complex and deeply human novel that explores the blurred lines between truth and deception in a war-torn world. Against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, the story follows two seemingly disparate narratives: the CIA operations of William "Skip" Sands, and the lives of two young men, Bill and James Houston, who become embroiled in the conflict. As the boundaries between reality and illusion begin to dissolve, the characters are forced to confront the darker aspects of human nature.
