3 Books With Neil PasrichaChapter 137: Jonathan Franzen finds fellow freaks and forges fantastic fiction I remember getting the knife. It was near Christmas about 10 years ago and Leslie and I were zipping up a tiny suitcase before a beach trip with her grandparents and extended family. We weren't married and I was making a desperate last-second plea to stuff a 576-page novel called 'The Corrections' by Jonathan Franzen into our bag. "It just won't fit," Leslie said. "You have … 100 pages left? Want to leave it and read it when we're back?" I did *not* want to do that. The book was slipping under my skin—serrating my soul. So I remember getting that knife.

Le recensioni di The BookAdvisor"Zona disagio" di Jonathan Franzen: confrontarsi con un passato tormentato e dolorosoA quarant'anni, poco dopo la morte della madre, Jonathan Franzen ritorna a Webster Groves, il sobborgo di St Louis dov'è cresciuto. I due fratelli maggiori l'hanno incaricato di cercare un agente immobiliare per vendere la casa di famiglia. Appena entra nelle stanze in cui ha trascorso infanzia e adolescenza, Franzen si sente un "conquistatore che bruciava le chiese e fracassava le icone del nemico". E il nemico è la famiglia.

The Book ReviewThomas Mallon on the Career of Jonathan FranzenJonathan Franzen’s new novel, “Crossroads,” has generated a lot of discussion, as his work tends to do. The novelist and critic Thomas Mallon, who reviewed “Crossroads” for us, is on the podcast this week to talk about the book and to place it in the context of Franzen’s entire career.“He is fundamentally a social novelist, and his basic unit of society is the family,” Mallon says. “Always families are important in Franzen, and we move outward from the family into the business, into the town, into whatever the larger units are. His novels are likely to remain a...

Bird Podcast with Shoba NarayanEpisode 23: Jonathan Franzen talks about birdingJonathan Franzen is arguably America's greatest living fiction writer. He has won numerous accolades and awards. His latest book, Crossroads, is just out. Like many of his novels, it has little to do with his other passion. As Jonathan says in this interview, he doesn't bird very much when he is working. Now to birding. In his New Yorker essay, "My Bird Problem," Franzen says that he began birding in 1999 at the age of 40. Since then, he has written a number of lyrical essays about birds, conservation and his birding adventures from Africa to Antarctica. My second favour...

The New Yorker Radio HourJonathan Franzen Talks with David Remnick About “Crossroads”Jonathan Franzen’s sixth novel, “Crossroads,” is set in 1971, and the title is firmly on the nose: the Hildebrand family is at a crossroads itself, just as the America of that moment seemed poised to come apart. In the course of his career, Franzen has evolved away from an early postmodernist sensibility that highlighted “bravura” writing, and “with this book I threw away all the po-mo hijinks and the grand plot elements,” he tells David Remnick. “It’s really only in the course of writing ‘Crossroads’ that I have said to myself, What I am is a novelist of character and psycholo...

Intelligence SquaredStop Pretending We Can Save the Planet, with Jonathan FranzenLet’s face it, argues Jonathan Franzen: the climate apocalypse is coming. We’ve already messed up the planet. The polar bears are running out of ice to stand on. Australia and California will burn again. Temperatures keep rising. Our chance to prevent the radical destabilisation of life on earth has already come and gone. According to Franzen, one of America’s most celebrated writers, there are two ways we can think about this. We can keep on hoping that catastrophe is preventable, and feel ever more frustrated or enraged by the world’s inaction. Or we can accept that dis...

Jonathan Franzen has received heaps of praise, prestigious awards, and plenty of backlash from women who aren't feeling the current de facto leader of the "Dude Writers." We compare Jenny Fields to Patty from "Freedom" and discuss why we'll take a pill-popping Jack Kerouac over bird-watching Franzen. But it wouldn't be a Mid Lit episode if we didn't explore some wild tangents. So please tune in to learn why we might be buying Jonathan Franzen's next book despite having no desire to actually...
