"Despite the grim prognoses for most of its characters, the novel isn't somber. It's chirpy, bright and strenuously zany....Most of the characters in this new novel are middle-aged, but they're soft and insipid--they make the navel-gazing Gen-Xers [of Coupland's first novel] look like wise old souls. It's hard to feel deeply for characters who don't feel deeply, and the Drummonds experience strong emotion as profoundly as a sneeze."Coupland, Douglas is the author of 'All Families Are Psychotic' with ISBN 9781582342153 and ISBN 1582342156.
