He is a brilliant social commentator and a wit of our times
Times Literary Supplement
'With this exceptional sequel to Generation X, Douglas Coupland may be one of the smartest, wittiest writers around...He is a terrifically good writer...Coupland scatters his smartly satirical observations throughout...This is a clever, brilliant book - and it's loads better than Generation X...funny and profound'
Esquire
'Possibly the most gifted exegete of North American mass culture writing today'
Observer
'Douglas Coupland has surely reserved his place at the top table of North American fiction'
Independent on Sunday
'We should really pay attention to Coupland. His eye is so firmly on the ball he's virtually clairvoyant'
Guardian
Eighteen years on from Generation X, Coupland still satirises pop culture better than anyone. This globe-spanning tale, set in the near future, is masterfully told and often hilarious.
GQ
Highly recommended. Like Murakami in thriller-trope mode. Go for it.
William Gibson
From the very first pages it jumps out: the language, the preoccupations, the political and technological references, the humour - they're all so now... Scintillating...I must admit I read the novel enviously. Oh, to have written something so clever, funny, heartfelt and original...The narration is layered, there are passages that are very funny, others that are wise, and throughout the language crackles with vitality...In the future, if people are curious about what it was like to live in our times, in the early 21st century, they will do well to read Douglas Coupland.
