About this title

Product Description:

[ Worst. Person. Ever. Coupland, Douglas ( Author ) ] { Hardcover } 2014

Review:

"An outrageous comic riot, delivered as a tear-inducing funny and pitch-black farce ... For every laugh here, there’s a haunting, echoing scream in the distance. The plot is unbridled romp ... It is hard to describe, out of context, quite how funny Coupland’s novel can be." (Sunday Times)

"Worst. Person. Ever. is very much a return to form. It had me laughing out loud on the bus to work." (Irish Times, Books of the Year)

"There are gloriously unquotable remarks and fantastically lurid images on every page. Gunt’s mind is a super-sewer in which it is a pleasure to swim. You can’t help giggling, constantly. Worst. Person. Ever. may be a raging bonfire of inanities but it contains some of Coupland’s finest writing since Shampoo Planet." (Evening Standard)

"There are some clever plot twists and fine comedy set pieces." (Scotland on Sunday)

"A comic riot of a novel." (Sunday Times - Must Reads)
