Freedom: A Novel

Andrew Goldsworthy, Dandelion Line, Storm King Sculpture Park, New York

By Jonathan Franzen, New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2010, p. 562

Anyone who could write a series of essays entitled How to be Alone, and claim he married his first wife because she was such a sensitive reader is my cup of tea.  I love big, lush novels, and Franzen helped me understand the long, sad Bush years.  Should have won the National Book Award for 2010.
