About this audiobook

Nothing Is Wrong is a darkly funny work of Poetic Cinema about a man named Nothing who sees what everyone else has been trained to ignore. In a city where pharmacies sell relief while street dealers go to prison, hospitals turn illness into revenue, schools call children the future while selling their buildings, and corporations receive human rights without human punishment, Nothing asks questions official language cannot answer. Joined by Serious, Miss Gloria, Maya, Simon, Rafael, Hope Comfort, and History, he follows the hidden connections among cancer, addiction, poverty, war, education, media, banking, criminal justice, and political blame. Their investigation leads beneath City Hall to the World Engine, a machine that converts every human wound into economic value. Absurd, philosophical, cinematic, and painfully recognizable, Nothing Is Wrong asks: What if the system is not broken, but operating exactly as designed—and what happens when people stop calling suffering normal?
