  SOUNDTRACK : TINDERSTICKS-The Hungry Saw (2008). It was the releases of this Tindersticks disc (their first in 5 years) on the venerable Constellation Records (in North America) that inspired my trip through their back catalog. I was completely surprised to see them released on Constellation, as the band ...

• Jon: “Generation A” by Douglas Coupland…

  
  gaycondo — Authority: 121
  So, I know it’s kind of 90’s and juvenile of me (like saying Catcher in the Rye is your favorite book), but Douglas Coupland* is my favorite fiction author of all time.

  Which do I read first? Stephen King’s new novel, Under the Dom e? or Douglas Coupland ’s new novel, Generation A ? How to choose? How to choose? The King novel is over a 1,00o pages but I don’t really find that very daunting. In fact, I’m quiet undaunted by it, very much eager to read it. Perhaps ...

Same way amazon does with books, although I have to say I often find amazon’s suggestions suspect, at least for my taste. Anyhoo… one of the suggestions ...
