Random House Canada, 2007, 275 pages

ISBN: 978-0-307-35628-4

I tend to read everything that I find of Douglas Coupland's, hoping that, this time, he'll have recaptured whatever it is that made Microserfs so appealing to me.  It never seems to work.  

 

This time, there were several layers of people writing as other people, bad fiction in an in-world book-in-progress, characters that I didn't mind and general weirdness that didn't quite land for me.
