The Dewey Decimal System by Nathan Larson

The Dewey Decimal System by Nathan Larson

After a flu pandemic, a large-scale terrorist attack and the total collapse of Wall Street, New York City is reduced to a shadow of its former self. As the city struggles to dig itself out of the wreckage, a nameless, obsessive-compulsive veteran with a spotty memory has taken up residence in the New York Public Library. Dubbed 'Dewey Decimal', he gets by as a bagman and muscle for the unscrupulous District Attorney. He'd be perfectly content alone amongst his books - but this is not on the cards and what unfolds is a bloody tangle of violence.

Nathan Larson is most recognized for his work as a film music composer, having written scores for over thirty films including Boys Don't Cry, Dirty Beautiful Things, and The Messenger. He was the lead guitarist for the influential prog-punk band Shudder to Think in the 1990s. It's his debut novel, and it's a good one. Larson, his wife, and their son live in Harlem, New York City.
