The Corrections, Jonathan Franzen's third novel, was awarded both the National Book Award and the New York Times Editors' Choice Award for 2001. He was named one of the Twenty Writers for the 21st Century by The New Yorker and has received both the Whiting Writer's Award and the American Academy's Berlin Prize. Freedom-an epic of contemporary love and marriage-is his first novel since The Corrections.
