All Families are Psychotic by Douglas Coupland Pdf

Psychosis: any form of severe mental disorder in which the individual’s contact with reality becomes highly distorted. 65-year-old Janet Drummond checks the clock in her cheap motel room near Cape Canaveral, takes her prescription pills and does a rapid tally of the whereabouts of her three children: Wade, the eldest, in and out of jail and still radiating "the glint”; suicidal Bryan, whose girlfriend, the vowel-free Shw, is pregnant; and Sarah, the family’s shining light, an astronaut preparing to be launched into space as the star of a shuttle mission. They will all arrive in Orlando—along with Janet’s ex-husband Ted and his new trophy wife—setting the stage for the most disastrous family reunion in the history of fiction. Florida may never recover from their version of fun in the sun. Adultery, hostage-taking, a letter purloined from Princess Diana’s coffin, heart attacks at Disney World, bankruptcy, addiction and black-market negotiations—Coupland piles on one deft, comic plot twist after another, leaving you reaching for your seat belt. When the crash comes, it is surprisingly sweet. From lauded writer, visual artist and designer Douglas Coupland, All Families are Psychotic is sizzling and sharp-witted entertainment that resounds with eternal human yearnings.
