Présentation de l'éditeur
Survivor, genius, critic.
Murderer.
Meet Benjamin White, blessed since his infancy with an extraordinary gift: to understand humour 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...

'Russell Kane is a death defier, the sort of comedian who won't let a moment pass without filling it with laughter' Zadie Smith
'A brilliant writer. Dark but very funny.' Amanda Ross
'Every comedian wants to deliver the punchline to end all punchlines, and in this slick, viscerally nasty book, award-winning stand-up Kane does just that'
