Regular readers among you will perhaps remember that Douglas Coupland is my favourite author. What you may not know is that I have every one of his novels (plus Polaroids From The Dead, which is classed as non-fiction), except Generation A. I was pleased to just happen upon this one random copy of The Gum Thief knocking about in Fopp as somehow it had totally slipped my mind. So, just because I can, may I present each work in backwards chronological order. The covers of Coupland books seem to change with the seasons; these are the versions I have.
(I'll let you in on a secret: I haven't read them all. I like to drip feed myself so I don't run out.)
Love the covers. Most are different from those in Canada. Doug is an awesome fellow who I have had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with a few times. Enjoy Gen A when you read it...it's magnificent!
ReplyDeleteWow Elizabeth, I'm so envious of you meeting the great DC! He was in the UK recently, but unfortunately nowhere near where I live so I didn't get to see him. Oh well, next time... Best wishes, Clare
