Franzen, J: Freedom

An international bestseller and the novel of the year, FREEDOM is an epic of contemporary love and marriage. In his first novel since THE CORRECTIONS, Jonathan Franzen has given us an epic of contemporary love and marriage. FREEDOM comically and tragically captures the temptations and burdens of too much liberty: the thrills of teenage lust and the shaken compromises of middle age. In charting the mistakes and joys of FREEDOMs intensely realized characters, as they struggle to learn how to live in an ever more confusing world, Franzen has produced an indelible and deeply moving portrait of our time.
