Nothing Important Happened Today

Jack Walker was already fed up with the world before the news of its demise came in. One anti-depressant short of a strait jacket, Jack has struggled to come to terms with modern society seemingly all of his life. And as the technological world has only become more interconnected as he's grown older, it's ironically only left Jack feeling even more alienated and alone, cold to a culture that has long since left him behind. So when the news comes in that the world's time is up, Jack finds that he's the only one in a position to deal with the new reality with a cool head. As global powers announce an impending nuclear war that could destroy all life on the planet, entire societies quickly start to fall apart as populations scramble to put together some kind of last minute survival plan. Well suited to the kind of environment this disaster would bring, Jack is forced to overcome desperate situations and a ticking clock if he wants to actually live long enough to see it become a reality. Weaving comedy into Jack's incredibly bleak life, the bitingly satirical new novel from Mark Davies, Nothing Important Happened Today promises to be the most relevant end of the world tale for our times. As life in a haunting post-apocalyptic society becomes more and more of a reality, Jack might finally find something resembling the peace and quiet he's craved for so long in this new world - that is, as long as he can survive long enough to appreciate it.
