I read Freedom and really liked it. I think I only STARTED The Corrections but didn't finish.
I must say that I really enjoyed Crossroads, even though the religious aspects confused me. I have to wrap my head around the focus on Christianity. Is Franzen contemptuous of it, or what?
I do like his style of writing, and he is very good at developing his characters. They are a fascinating lot here!
This book is introduced as Part 1 of a trilogy and I kind of resent that. How can you say it's a trilogy if you have only written one book?
I do recommend reading it and beware! It is long, but I was taken in by it all the way!
