What's your opinion of Douglas Coupland?
Just picked up Generation A, about 70 pages in, I really like it actually. Interesting story so far.
Anything else I should check out after I finish Generation A?

I met him once, he was really nice and despite being older, he's able to relate and appeal to my generation (Gen Y) very well. He's most known for Generation X so you'll probably want to pick that up. I haven't read all his books, but I did enjoy All Families are Psychotic and Hey Nostradamus! I would probably check out Microserfs and jPod too.

I was rather disappointed with the ending to Hey, Nostradamus! and decided not to investigate further.

On an unrelated note, I feel like there are real similarities between Coupland and Russell Banks. Am I the only one to think so?
