"The Name of the World'' extends its narrative line from a ragged Middle Western campus to the graffiti-webbed tunnels of Amtrak to the islands of the Aegean. It closes at the borders of Saddam Hussein's Iraq, as Mike Reed (like Denis Johnson) covers Operation Desert Storm. The world rushing by is sometimes imperfectly realized, sometimes bleak, occasionally luminous. Still, there's no doubt about the power of this writer's vision. (New York Times)
