A review by trin
Miss Wyoming by Douglas Coupland

3.0

The first couple chapters of this book rang false to me (among other things, Coupland screwed up some details of L.A. geography, which is a big no-no to this Angeleno) but amazingly, it won me back and won me big time. I did believe in both Susan and John by the end, and in their journeys, and I love that Coupland doesn't make cartoon villains out of his antagonists—even Susan's beast of a mother is afforded some sympathy. I guess in the end it's the emotional geography that counts.
