This book is literally about nothing. It's a ridiculous philosophy about the power of nothing told through a fun narrative with the strangest characters I have ever read. Every conversation was nonsensical every decision was random, strange book.

Two hapless mathematicians fall prey to a Bondesque super-villian and it all comes to, well, nothing. Loved it.

While reading Dr No I have also been reading a book that features one character named Dutiful Penitence and another called Aunt Tribulation. And yet it is Dr No that has struck me as far too absurd.

In other words if you have not read any Percival Everett, perhaps it is best not to start here.
