Book Reviews of The Nothing Man
Book Review: A dark and twisting exploration of one man's haunted mind.
Summary: 4 Stars
In a small California town lives an ace newspaper reporter with a secret so terrible that only alcohol can hide the pain. It's a secret that so shames, disgraces and angers him that he'll do anything to keep it hidden-- even kill. Or will he? In one of his finer novels, Thompson makes masterful use of an unreliable narrator who may or may not have committed the murders he's confessing to. An intense and page-turning look at one miserable man, capped off with an ending that will stun you.
