D'abord Jpod.
Je vous colle le pitch:
A lethal joyride into today's new breed of technogeeks, Coupland's forthcoming novel updates Microserfs for the age of Google.Ethan Jarlewski and five co-workers whose surnames end in 'J' are bureaucratically marooned in jPod. jPod is a no-escape architectural limbo on the fringes of a massive Vancouver game design company.The six workers daily confront the forces that define our era: global piracy, boneheaded marketing staff, people smuggling, the rise of China, marijuana grow-ops, Jeff Probst, and the ashes of the 1990s financial tech dream. JPod's universe is amoral and shameless. The characters are products of their era even as they're creating it. Everybody in Ethan's life inhabits a moral grey zone. Nobody is exempt, not even his seemingly straitlaced parents or Coupland himself.Full of word games, visual jokes and sideways jabs, this book throws a sharp, pointed lawn dart into the heart of contemporary life.
Il sort en juin. D'ici là, vous pouvez toujours lire l'entretien ci dessous.
Et puis, libre à vous également de regarder le making of de "Everything's gone green", le film dont Coupland a écrit le scénar. Alors ce n'est pas nouveau que Doug est amoureux de Vancouver. Depuis City Of Glass, on le savait déjà. Mais là, ça prend forme en couleur... Avec le frère de Joey comme acteur principal (si vous savez, la suite de Friends à LA.). Voilà, c'est là:
Everything's Gone Green
