“Russell Kane is a death defier, the sort of comedian who won’t let a moment pass without filling it with laughter.”

Zadie Smith, New York Times bestselling author and winner of the Orange Prize

Survivor, genius, critic.

Murderer.

Meet Benjamin Davids White, blessed since his infancy with an extraordinary gift: to understand humor at its deepest level. Yet Benjamin is cursed, too. In all his life, he has never laughed or smiled. At the height of his profession as a comedy critic, yet lacking any kind of human empathy, Benjamin discovers a formula that will allow him to construct the most powerful joke the world has ever known. A joke that has the power to kill.
