Running light on summer reading? Colson Whitehead has posted the first 19 pages of his new book, Zone One. Just enough to get fans excited for its full release in October. What should you expect? Here’s a quick note from Publisher’s Weekly about the book: “Whitehead dumpster dives genre tropes, using what he wants and leaving the rest to rot, turning what could have been another zombie-pocalypse gore-fest into the kind of smart, funny, pop culture–filled tale
that would make George Romero proud.”
