Franzen crossroads review7/4/2023 ![]() ![]() Comparisons aside, this novel was very intimate for a book of its length. So I cannot compare any of Franzen’s previous writing to this book – I won’t be able to say whether this is better or worse than The Corrections. I know Franzen is wildly popular, and from my own hometown, and writes the sort of books that I enjoy – but I haven’t read any of his work before this book. Because, essentially, it is just a chapter break.īut that’s the end, and you’ll start this book at the beginning. Knowing that helped me to understand the end of this novel, which feels less like a conclusion and more like a chapter break. I came across that piece of information before I finished the novel but after I was well into it. ![]() Something I wasn’t aware of when I read this book (I’m not quite sure how I missed it) but other potential readers may want to know – this book is meant to be the first in a trilogy. ![]()
