Korrektioner by Jonathan Franzen
A sharply observed, darkly comic portrait of a Midwestern family whose attempt at a final, restorative reunion exposes long-buried resentments, illness, and self-deceptions: an aging patriarch’s neurological decline and his wife’s obsessive need for order collide with the aimless, troubled lives of their three adult children—one trapped in a suffocating corporate world, one drifting into risky schemes and exile, and one carving out an independent but complicated life as a chef—while social and economic forces amplify personal failures and force painful reckonings.
