Everything Matters!
''Everything Matters!'' (2009) is American author Ron Currie Jr.'s second novel.
==Summary==
The novel focuses around the life of an individual who knows from the moment of his birth exactly when and how the world will end. Guided by a seemingly omniscient presence, he struggles to understand if his actions truly matter in the face of an inevitable end. As critic Janet Maslin summarizes the novel, "The voice goes on to outline what the unborn child can expect from life. The child will learn to walk. After that, it’s told, 'you must learn to run, share, swing a bat and hold a pencil, love, weep, read, tie your shoelaces, bathe and die.” Die? Already? How? The voice helpfully proclaims that 36 years and 168 days after the child is born a runaway comet will smash violently into planet Earth.'"〔(Janet Maslin, "The Sky Is Falling Soon! (And Junior Is Agitated)," ''The New York Times'', 17 June 2009. )〕
