In this comic novel, a man conspires with a friend to kill a third man. The novel constructs its effect through the employment of repetition and mises en abime (mise en abimes?). It also deploys footnotes in a way that might remind readers of Nicholson Baker’s The Mezzanine or Robert Grudin’s Book.
