I really like his books, particularly when I agree with his points - they make me feel smarter than I actually am.

Douglas Coupland
Canadian, dry, and full of sarcasm. His novels always (well, as near as "always" someone can get who's only read about half of someone's work) make me feel a bit stupid for wanting things.... seems to me he has a huge urge to be able to slow things down, step outside himself (the things society has decided he should care about, I'm thinking) and get back to nature.
