Douglas Coupland

[pax]

Since noting that kobayashi has a Coupland quote in his sigfile these days, I thought I'd start up a Coupland appreciation thread. He's probably my favorite contemporary novelist, and he doesn't get nearly the props that he ought to.

Generation X is a good introduction to Coupland, but Microserfs is his best work, in my opinion. Anyone else have any thoughts?

Sees an honest wage.

I enjoyed Life After God, and am about to start All Families Are Psychotic.
