Description
Dr. No is the spy thriller as you've never read it before! Reinvented by Percival Everett, the twice Booker Prize-shortlisted author of The Trees and James.
'Clever, funny and mercilessly satirical.' - The Times
Wala Kitu is a professor of mathematics at Brown University, specializing in nothing. Kitu is content with nothing - studying it, having it, doing it - until his research places him in the sights of billionaire and would-be Bond villain John Sill, who enlists the professor's help to steal a deposit of nothing from Fort Knox and use it to reduce the United States of America to nothing.
Sill wants vengeance for another act of all-American villainy: the murder of his father, a witness to the state-sanctioned assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. His mission is everything: 'This country has never given anything to us and it never will.'
Part of the Picador Collection, a series celebrating fifty years of Picador books and showcasing the best of modern literature.
