Douglas Coupland's inventive novel-think Clerks meets Who's Afraid of
Virginia Woolf?-is the story of an extraordinary epistolary
relationship between Roger and Bethany, two very different, but
strangely connected, "aisles associates" at Staples. Watch as their
lives unfold alongside Roger's work-in-progress, the oddly titled
Glove Pond. A raucous tale of four academics, two malfunctioning
marriages, and one rotten dinner party, Roger's opus is a
Cheever-style novella gone horribly wrong. But as key characters
migrate into and out of its pages, Glove Pond becomes an anchor of
Roger's unsettled-and unsettling-life.Coupland electrifies us on every
page of this witty, wise, and unforgettable novel. Love, death, and
eternal friendship can all transpire where we least expect them...and
even after tragedy seems to have wiped your human slate clean, stories
can slowly rebuild you.
