Martin Luther King had a dream. I had two: one involved wearing a g-string to my 2012 Oscar acceptance speech, the other; a cute-as-pie boutique/coffee shop (that spins old vinyl, bakes homemade muffins and makes the best coffee in Bondi) opening barefoot distance from my office/apartment/crack den.
There really aren't enough laugh-out-loud-hilarious novels set in the smoldering aftermath of 9/11. So we must thank the Good Lord for Jess Walter's THE ZERO.
Burned out New York copper Brian Remy, tours baseball players around Ground Zero, eats miso glazed duck in every restaurant, suffers alarming memory lapses after he shoots himself in the head, hangs out with 12-year-old Vietnamese girls in silk pyjamas and (maybe) gets drawn into an unsanctioned intergovernmental domestic spying mission to (maybe) catch members of a Islamic terrorist cell.
