Savvy Studio X CBB Monthly Book Review

Shopping in Jail Ideas, Essays, and Stories for the increasingly Real Twenty-First Century With a subtle, dry sense of humor, and an introvert’s eye for detail, Douglas Coupland incisively tackles the ironies of modern life in this collection of nonfiction micro-essays. From time-traveling musings to a bullet list of thoughts on porn and dating in the digital age, Coupland smartly and rather entertainingly gives his take on those parts of life that sit below the level of consciousness in modern life—the things that exist around you but that you never really think about. Most of the essays are a couple of pages at most, but hold enough information to provide a quick bite of food for thought.
