Coles People's Choice Literature: The Most Wanted and Unwanted Novels at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

What do Americans truly want in a novel? What would it look like if their preferences and aversions materialized in book form? In People's Choice Literature , Tom Comitta has taken up this challenge, writing two groundbreaking novels based on a nationwide poll about literary taste―one featuring the story elements Americans most desire and another containing everything Americans despise. The Most Wanted Novel is a fast-paced thriller evoking page-turners by Dan Brown, David Baldacci, and Janet Evanovich. It follows a California woman pulled into a tech tycoon's apocalyptic ambitions after her brother's kidnapping, teaming up with a hunky FBI agent with a tragic past. The Most Unwanted Novel is a genre-bending doorstopper: an epistolary Christmas novel set on a near-future Mars, where elderly aristocratic tennis players scour the globe for lost love, venturing from the coldest of arctic wastelands to the darkest caverns of the macabre. Variously recalling Kathy Acker, César Aira, and Philip K. Dick, it features sentient robots, talking animals, and a collection of horror stories. People's Choice Literature is inspired by the artists Komar and Melamid, who created two now-infamous paintings based on opinion polling. A similar experiment by Dave Soldier produced "The Most Wanted Song" and "The Most Unwanted Song."
