One of the latest House of Anansi Press blog posts announces Douglas Coupand's newest artistic venture: he has joined forces with Roots Canada to produce a new line of clothing, launching July 8!
The collection's motto is "Canada Goes Electric", and features limited edition graphic apparel and leather goods. The pièce de résistance? A silver leather bomber jacket covered in pop-culture patches and large chrome studs, signed by Douglas Coupland himself.
In the promo video, Coupland talks about Canadian history and the fact that "what really links Canadians together is that we're all far apart".
Also, be sure to keep an eye out for Douglas Coupland's 2010 Massey Lecture What Is to Become of Us: A Novel in Five Hours (House of Anansi Press).
