Douglas Coupland's JPod. Lucky for me I've
never liked Douglas Coupland.
An early contender for worst novel of the 21st century, Douglas (Generation X) Coupland's dated, incorrigible JPod fails both as a work of literature and as a piece of performance art. I'm not sure which Coupland intended it to be, but let's hope it's the latter. At least that way, having failed spectacularly in book form, he can attempt to embellish it with some naked interpretive dance or Tuvan throat singing during his Seattle appearance.
The most amazing part of this astoundingly harsh review is the photo caption, which is simply two words:
