B>b>A wildly inventive, savagely funny and topical novel about love, mortality and the afterlife, by the Booker-shortlisted author of A Fraction of the Whole./b>/b>br>br>Angus is a reformed ne''er-do-well looking forward to the birth of his first child when he''s murdered by a man who is in love with his pregnant wife Gracie. Having never believed in God, heaven or hell, Angus finds himself in the afterlife - a place that provides more questions than answers. As a worldwide pandemic finally reaches the shores of Australia, the afterlife starts to get very crowded and Angus finds a way to reconnect with his wife Gracie and maybe even seek revenge on his murderer...br>;br>Here Goes Nothing is a novel of exhilarating originality and scope about birth, death and everything in between and after by a writer of prodigious talent (Peter Carey) that contains a vision of the afterlife that rivals Dantes Divine Comedy and George Saunders'' Lincoln in the Bardo, and the emmy-nominated The Good Place.
