Douglas Coupland - The Gum Thief

Yup another Coupland book.  This one was okay.  Not quite as good as his past works.  I did love the "book" within the book.  The characters were quite hilarious.  They were so cookie cutter they almost had too much life to them.  Anyway the quotes of interest are below:

"Wouldn't it be great if stars turned black during the day-the sky covered with dots like pepper?"

"She thought of how rare it is that we catch glimpses of ourselves in mirrors-usually in public spaces-and see ourselves first as strangers see us"
