The wisest, richest, funniest, and most moving novel in years from Don
DeLillo, one of the great American novelists of our time—an ode to
language, at the heart of our humanity, a meditation on death, and an
embrace of life.
Jeffrey Lockhart’s father, Ross, is a
billionaire in his sixties, with a younger wife, Artis Martineau, whose
health is failing. Ross is the primary investor in a remote and secret
compound where death is exquisitely controlled and bodies are preserved
until a future time when biomedical advances and new technologies can
return them to a life of transcendent promise. Jeff joins Ross and Artis
at the compound to say “an uncertain farewell” to her as she surrenders
her body.
“We are born without choosing to be. Should we have
to die in the same manner? Isn’t it a human glory to refuse to accept a
certain fate?”
These are the questions that haunt the novel and
its memorable characters, and it is Ross Flowchart, most particularly,
who feels a deep need to enter another dimension and awake to a new
world. For his son, this is indefensible. Jeff, the book’s narrator, is
committed to living, to experiencing “the mingled astonishments of our
time, here, on earth.”
Don DeLillo’s seductive, spectacularly
observed and brilliant new novel weighs the darkness of the
world—terrorism, floods, fires, famine, plague—against the beauty and
humanity of everyday life; love, awe, “the intimate touch of earth and
sun.”
Zero K is glorious.
