Title: Please go back to the suburbs!
Product review: I have to admit, I was very disappointed by this novel. I have read Douglas Coupland's previous books, multiple times, in fact, and I have loved them all.My favorite characteristic of his books has always been the flashes of brilliant insight that he seems to find in the austere desert, a suburban mini-mall, in the woods. The Hollywood backdrop for this story rang hollow, and didn't provide for that same kind of insight.I was also disappointed in the dialogue--usually I find his wording to be charming and intelligent, but here it sounded like the unedited prose of a precocious 10th grader.
