Reviews

'Johnson makes an original contribution to the literature of disaster, and certainly to the nation's literature that still struggles beneath the mantle of social realism; he does it by the sheer intensity of his poetic vision, combined with an adroit meta-fictional sense... In this fallen world, does falling matter? Johnson's novel is an exuberant, artful meditation on this question...' David Dowling, Landfall. 'He has achieved a kind of 'worldmaking' that confirms his position as one of New Zealand's most important fiction writers.' Jody Dalgleish, on the novel Travesty, Landfall. 'One of the most innovative, original and fearless writers I know.' Witi Ihimaera, on the novel Stench.
