The Gum Thief - Douglas Coupland

A BookieMonster HIGHLY RECOMMENDED READ!

Douglas Couplands ingenious novelthink Clerks meets Whos 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 Rogers work-in-progress, the oddly titled Glove Pond. A raucous tale of four academics, two malfunctioning marriages, and one rotten dinner party, Rogers 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 Rogers unsettledand unsettlinglife.

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 themand even after tragedy seems to have wiped your human slate clean, stories can slowly rebuild you.
