Here Goes Nothing (häftad, eng)

''One of the funniest and most original writers at work today'' The Times

A firecracker of a novel by the Booker-shortlisted author of A Fraction of the Whole - a scathingly funny and affecting tale of life, death, love and the questionable existence of God.

Angus Mooney is not happy - he''s been murdered, cut off in the prime of his lifeHe feels humiliated - he''s never even believed in an afterlife. (How wrong he''d been). He''s confused - death has provided more questions than answers. And he desperately misses his audacious and fiery wife, Gracie, who''s expecting their first child.

The only upside is that Angus has found a way to see what his murderer is up to, and how Gracie is faringThe downside: Gracie and his murderer are getting uncomfortably close, and a worldwide pandemic means the afterlife is about to get very crowded . . .

''Toltz takes his time with each book and Here Goes Nothing is a funny, clever, entertaining argument in favour of cultivating the patience to get it right'' Guardian
