But every time we create something new, we go from 0 to 1.

"Zero K" er Don DeLillos første roman i ti år og er en mesterlig skildring af livet og kampen mod døden.

Ross er hovedinvestor i et afsides liggende og hemmeligt kompleks, hvor alvorligt syge mennesker fryses ned i håbet om, at de kan vende tilbage til livet den dag, hvor medicinske fremskridt ville kunne kurere dem.

Jeff joins Ross and Artis at the compound to say an uncertain farewell to her as she surrenders her body.
