Description

Dr. No is a spy thriller that reimagines the genre with a fresh perspective. Percival Everett's reinvention of the story brings a unique voice to the table.

Wala Kitu, a professor of mathematics at Brown University, is content with nothing - studying it, having it, doing it. However, his research places him in the sights of billionaire and would-be Bond villain John Sill, who enlists Kitu's help to steal a deposit of nothing from Fort Knox. Sill's mission is driven by a desire for vengeance against the United States, which he believes has never given anything to him or his people.

This satirical thriller is part of the Picador Collection, a series celebrating fifty years of Picador books and showcasing the best of modern literature. If you're looking for a clever, funny, and mercilessly satirical read, Dr. No is an excellent choice.
