The winner of THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD the New York Times No.1 Bestseller and the worldwide literary sensation The Corrections has established itself as a truly great American novel. The Lamberts -- Enid and Alfred and their three grown-up children -- are a troubled family living in a troubled age. Alfred is ill and as his condition worsens the whole family must face the failures secrets and long-buried hurts that haunt them if they are to make the corrections that each desperately needs. Stretching from the Midwest in the mid-century to Wall Street and Eastern Europe in the age of globalised greed The Corrections brings an old-time America of freight trains and civic duty into wild collision with the era of home surveillance hands-off parenting do-it-yourself mental healthcare and New Economy millionaires. It announces Jonathan Franzen as one of the most brilliant interpreters of American society and the American soul. --> Genre: Sagas America
