Recensioner i media

'An hilarious, moving read… Brilliantly observed, sharply written and constantly entertaining.' NME'A funny and stridently topical novel. Coupland continues to register the buzz of his generation.' Jay McInerney, New York Times'The writing is astonishing, the emotions genuine and the characters fully formed… Microserfs shows yet again Coupland's ability to create rather than imitate.' Irish Times'A witty novel with real heart.' Sunday Telegraph
