Set in Nicaragua in 1984, The Stars at Noon is a
story of passion, fear, and betrayal told in the voice of an
American woman whose mission in Central America is as
shadowy as her surroundings. Is she a reporter for an
American magazine as she sometimes claims, or a contact
person for Eyes of Peace? And who is the rough English
businessman with whom she becomes involved? As the two
foreigners become entangled in increasingly sinister plots,
Denis Johnson masterfully dramatizes a powerful vision of
spiritual bereavement and corruption.
