Freedom by Jonathan Franzen

Secondhand paperback good condition. Published by Picador, 2010. Freedom follows Walter and Patty Berglund, a married couple in St. Paul, Minnesota, as their seemingly ideal life unravels in the new millennium. The novel explores themes of personal freedom, family dysfunction, and American identity through interconnected stories of the Berglunds, their two children, and their circle of friends, including the enigmatic musician Richard Katz. Franzen examines how the pursuit of individual liberty—whether through career ambition, infidelity, or rebellion—creates both triumph and tragedy in the lives of contemporary Americans.
