Unfortunately, her husband Alfred is losing his sanity, and their children have long since fled for the catastrophes of their own lives. As Alfred's condition worsens and the Lamberts are forced to face their secrets and failures, Enid sets her heart on one last family Christmas.Bringing the old world of civic virtue and sexual inhibition into violent collision with the era of hands-off parenting, do-it-yourself mental healthcare and globalised greed, The Corrections is a generous, perceptive and moving family epic. This 25th anniversary edition, complete with a new foreword from the author himself, celebrates Franzen as one of the most brilliant interpreters of the American soul.\u003ch2\u003eAbout the author\u003c\/h2\u003eJonathan Franzen's work includes four novels (\u003ci\u003eThe Twenty-Seventh City\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eStrong Motion\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Corrections\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFreedom\u003c\/i\u003e), two collections of essays (\u003ci\u003eFarther Away\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHow To Be Alone\u003c\/i\u003e), a memoir (\u003ci\u003eThe Discomfort Zone\u003c\/i\u003e), and, most recently, \u003ci\u003eThe Kraus Project\u003c\/i\u003e.
