The writer who gave a generation its well-deserved X returns to the
quasi-theological themes of his third novel, Life After God (1994), and
again wanders off into spacey, New Age platitudes about death and
transcendence. Sappy at its core, but showing signs nonetheless of
Coupland's evolution as a novelist not wholly dependent on trend-
spotting and zeitgeisty patter. (Kirkus)
Characters: 77. Amazon rating: 3 1/2 stars. Genre: Fiction.
