INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Wynne-Jones, Tim

Rex Zero, King of Nothing

(1) 4-6 For Rex (Rex Zero and the End of the World), mysteries abound. Who's the woman calling his father "Liebchen" in a letter? Why is the "Nate" he finds in a mislaid address book really Natasha? What's with those pictures of black-underwear-clad women in his friend's magazines? Wynne-Jones brilliantly plays Rex's childhood world against the adult one he's just beginning to discern.
