false 2791183 1 Morgan Beale is a pop icon and hates every second of it. He begins adapting the latest bestseller, The Chihuahua in the Blue Prada Bag, into a blockbuster movie just before his celebutante wife starts remodeling their Hollywood home, driving Beale to a hotel. Dodging the paparazzi one morning on his way to Starbucks, he spots his writing partner, Luke, who has been dead for over a decade, and who is staring into a mysterious hole in the ground. Driving headlong into the hole, they discover the surreal otherworld of Starbucks Nation, a film set littered with characters from Beale's life and the novel he's adapting, including a talking Chihuahua and an elite commando unit of ethnic cookie-making elves. Mercilessly lampooning our fascination with reality television, celebrity blunders, and mindless infotainment, STARBUCKS NATION brilliantly showcases the absurdities of modern society. 2816954 15 5 2008 Starbucks Nation: A Novel total:18|5:1|4:3|3:4|2:4|1:6| 18 43 30 5 4 0 false false Sat Jan 24 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 24 18:14:11 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 24 18:31:38 -0800 2009 more...]]> 1 0 false false Thu Feb 26 13:50:47 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 16 17:51:28 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 26 13:50:47 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sun Feb 10 13:45:00 -0800 2008 Sun Feb 10 13:46:33 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Wed Sep 10 17:41:10 -0700 2008 Wed Sep 10 17:43:56 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Sat Aug 09 17:37:23 -0700 2008 Mon Aug 04 18:04:16 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 09 17:37:23 -0700 2008 1 0 false false Wed Jul 08 19:33:01 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 06 19:39:16 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 08 19:33:01 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jun 27 18:33:28 -0700 2009 Sat Jun 27 18:33:28 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon May 25 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue May 26 08:26:37 -0700 2009 Tue May 26 08:26:37 -0700 2009 1 0 false false Mon Jun 15 06:37:11 -0700 2009 Fri May 22 14:59:19 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 15 06:37:11 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu May 07 08:16:52 -0700 2009 Thu May 07 08:16:52 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Wed Apr 15 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 15 12:58:03 -0700 2009 Fri May 01 20:19:57 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Apr 01 17:13:58 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 01 17:13:58 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Mar 27 19:20:53 -0700 2009 Fri Mar 27 19:20:53 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Mar 11 06:17:41 -0700 2009 Wed Mar 11 06:17:41 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Tue Mar 10 19:11:51 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 10 19:11:51 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Tue Mar 03 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Feb 25 18:03:49 -0800 2009 Tue Mar 03 14:49:43 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Mon Jan 26 03:16:40 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 26 03:16:46 -0800 2009 1 0 false false Tue Feb 10 06:57:24 -0800 2009 Sun Jan 11 08:51:17 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 10 06:57:24 -0800 2009 2 0 false false Tue Oct 21 19:21:55 -0700 2008 Tue Oct 21 19:21:55 -0700 2008 1 0 false false Wed Oct 15 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Oct 15 07:02:16 -0700 2008 Wed Oct 15 07:02:30 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=2791183
