Last night I attended a reading and book signing for visual artist/writer Douglas Coupland’s new novel “The Gum Thief”.
(I remember a friend lending me his first book “Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture” for my annual family road trip to Florida and being stretched out in the backseat reading it during the three-day car ride; I would have been about 19 years old and his collection of pop culture idioms really struck a chord with me…I’ve been a fan of his ever since!) Coupland has teamed up with a design and post studio here in Toronto for a series of video installations for the novel -- you can check them out
