Imagine feeling 100% alive every moment of every minute of the day! Maybe thats how animals live. Or trees, even. I sometimes stare at the plastic bag tree visible from my apartment window and marvel that both it and I are equally alive and that theres no sliding scale of life. Youre either alive, or youre not. Or youre dead or youre not. Thirty years after Douglas Coupland broke the fiction mould and defined a generation with Generation X, he is back with Binge, 60 stories laced with his observational profundity about the way we live and his existential worry about how we should be living the very things that have made him such an influential and bestselling writer. Not to mention that he can also be really funny. Here the narrators vary from story to story as Doug catches what he calls the voice of the people, inspired by the way we write about ourselves and our experiences in online forums. The characters, of course, are Dougs own crackpots, cranks and sweetiepies, dad dancers and perpetrators of carbecues. People in the grip of unconscionable urges lonely people dying people silly people. If you love Dougs fiction, this collection is like rain on the desert.
