The novel The Corrections, published in 2001, brought worldwide fame to forty-two-year-old Jonathan Franzen and put him on par with the classics of American literature. The book sold millions of copies, won the National Book Award and was translated into 35 languages.
The story of a family from the Midwest, told with irony and love, turned out to be deeply universal. The Lamberts and their three adult children are like any real family: they love and hate each other, ruin and save each other's lives - and no one, including themselves, can stop them from getting together at the Christmas table if their mother wants it. The backdrop for this eternal collision is America of the 90s - with its external well-being and internal anxiety, in a vague premonition of change.
