Trade ReviewA work of genius * Independent on Sunday *
A tense, utterly compelling story * The Times *
Enjoyable . . .The way Coupland moulds his fiction from the throwaway debris of North American popular culture is quite brilliant . . . Coupland has always been a highly compassionate writer, concerned mainly with the ways in which affluent people's lives are cheapened by popular culture -- Scarlett Thomas * Guardian *
The pulse quickens as his principal characters hunker down for some besieged truth-telling...Dynamic engagement is the real meat of this slim but provocative novel * Independent *
As always with Coupland, the ideas come thick and fast, they're quirky, often funny and frequently profound * Daily Mail *
