A dysfunctional family is drawn back together because the daughter is a NASA astronaut about to go into space on the Shuttle. From this, there develops a sub-plot based on one of the son's dodgy dealings to generate large amounts of cash.
Coupland's writing style is informal and readable, and in places the book is funny - without ever approaching the "hilarious" status hinted at in many reviews. The comedy is black, and the situations are contrived and completely unrealistic. A bit like Tom Sharpe, but maybe a touch more sophisticated.
