Check out this blog post about Douglas Coupland donating his papers to the University of British Columbia.
Among the more interesting items to me is the first draft of Coupland’s breakout novel, “Generation X,” and a manuscript for an unpublished novel entitled “1991” but which was later retitled “The Day the Muzak Died,” which I thinks is much more interesting. Oh yeah, also a Generation X comic strip.
I am sure that Coupland’s papers will be one of the more eccentric and interesting collections that exist.
