This book is the first full-length study of Douglas Coupland, one of the twenty-first century?s most innovative and influential novelists. The study explores the prolific first decade and a half of Coupland?s career, from Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture (1991) to JPod (2006), a period in which he published ten novels and four significant volumes of non-fiction. Emerging in the last decade of the twentieth century - amidst the absurd contradictions of instantaneous global communication and acute poverty - Coupland?s novels, short stories, essays and visual art have intervened inches.
