Title: When An Author Inserts Himself Into A Novel
Review: it is usually a recipe for disaster and I must say that the recipe works all too well. I can actually see Coupland, on a weekend bender as he scrawled out this drivel on an Etch N Sketch. (Imagine if I wasn't a huge fan Doug).The story is not plausible from the first page and while there parts in the book that will make you smile, you would be better off skipping to the last page of the book, read the final line, and save your time and money for his next adventure.The only good news is the book is printed on non acid paper so if I decide to use it for kindling I would be doing no further harm to the enviroment as already way too many trees died for this novel.Bottom Line - If you must read it, wait 3 months and buy ft for a penny as I am sure there will be multiple listings for it in the Used Section of this website.
