Generation A is set in the near future in a world where bees are extinct, until five unconnected people all around the worldâ in the United States, Canada, France, New Zealand, and Sri Lankaâare all stung. Their shared experience unites them in ways they never could have imagined. Generation A mirrors Couplandâs debut novel, 1991âs Generation X. It explores new ways of storytelling in a digital world. Like much of Couplandâs writing, it occupies the perplexing hinterland between optimism about the future and everyday apocalyptic paranoia. Imaginative, inventive, and fantastically entertaining, Generation A is his most ambitious work to date.
