Freedom
Freedom

I really wanted to find this book totally enthralling; however, my interest began to ebb when I couldn't find a reason to care about the characters and their totally self-absorbed lives. I think Franzen writes very well, and I hoped that Freedom would be a better vehicle for his talent than The Corrections. Apparently he is simply not the author for me.
