SYNOPSIS
JPod, Douglas Coupland''s most acclaimed novel to date, is a lethal joyride into today''s new breed of tech worker.
Ethan Jarlewski and five co-workers whose surnames begin with "J" are bureaucratically marooned in jPod, a no-escape architectural limbo on the fringes of a massive Vancouver game design company. The jPodders wage daily battle against the demands of a boneheaded marketing staff, who daily torture employees with idiotic changes to already idiotic games. Meanwhile, Ethan''s personal life is shaped (or twisted) by phenomena as disparate as Hollywood, marijuana grow-ops, people-smuggling, ballroom dancing, and the rise of China. JPod''s universe is amoral, shameless, and dizzyingly fast-paced like our own.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Douglas Coupland
Escritor canadiano nascido a 30 de Dezembro de 1961, em Baden-Sollingen, Alemanha, numa base militar da NATO. Estudou escultura no Emily Carr College of Art and Design em Vancouver e completou a sua formação em Milão (Itália) e em Sapporo (Japão), tendo chegado a receber dois Canadian National Award for Excellence in Industrial Design. Começou a escrever artigos para jornais e revistas em finais dos anos oitenta e em 1991 publicou Generation X (Geração X), o seu primeiro romance. Tanto este como Microserfs (Inforescravos, 1995) foram adoptados como manifestos de uma geração desiludida com o ritmo desumano do mundo do trabalho, o consumismo, a cultura de massas, a destruição do ambiente e a falta de sentido das suas vidas em geral. Para além destes dois romances, Coupland publicou Shampoo Planet (1992), Life After God (A Vida Depois de Deus, 1994), Polaroids From the Dead (Polaróides de Figuras Extintas, 1996), Girlfriend in a Coma (Coma Profundo, 1998), Lara's Book - Lara Croft and the Tomb Raider Phenomenon (1998) e Miss Wyoming (2000).
