Un joven presiente que el coche que lo acaba de recoger va a sufrir un accidente; en otro relato se salva de una sobredosis, y más tarde ve morir a un amigo. En estos once relatos breves protagonizados por seres desorientados y marginados, Denis Johnson habla del dolor y la trascendencia, de tocar fondo y de salir a flote, de perderse y encontrarse. Crónica visionaria de soñadores, adictos y almas perdidas, la cruda belleza y la energía velada de la prosa de Denis Johnson han hecho que Hijo de Jesús merezca un lugar entre los clásicos del siglo xx de la literatura norteamericana.
