About this product

Product Information

Girls, memory, parenting, millennial fear - all served Coupland-style. Karen, an attractive, popular student, goes into a coma one night in 1979. Whilst in it, she gives birth to a healthy baby daughter; once out of it, a mere eighteen years later, she finds herself, Rip van Winkle-like, a middle-aged mother whose friends have all gone through all the normal marital, social and political traumas and back again... This tragicomedy shows Coupland in his most mature form yet, writing with all his customary powers of acute observation, but turning his attention away from the surface of modern life to the dynamics of modern relationships, but doing so with all the sly wit and weird accuracy we expect of the soothsaying author of Generation X, Shampoo Planet, Life After God, Microserfs and Polaroids from the Dead.

  • It's serious!

    Unusual for me to submit a review when only halfway through a book but I feel compelled to do so. There's so much to love about this book. It'll make you look at your own life, reflect and question things, as a lot of the best books do. The story begins with the first narrator, who is dead! Then the narrator switches between some of the key characters. It's about youth and ageing, and love and friendship. It delves into what makes us the people we are, choices, society, happiness, dissatisfaction, joy and despair. It's certainly an uplifting book thus far. I'm halfway through and absolutely hooked. Can't wait to finish it. Recommended!
