The critically acclaimed second novel from the author of ‘The Corrections’.

During a bitter feud over the inheritance Louis falls in love with Renée Seitchek, a passionate and brilliant seismologist, whose discoveries about the origin of the earthquakes complicate everything.

Industry Reviews

'By sheer force of his imaginative writing and his unsheathed views of American life, Franzen succeeds in joining together a love story, a family story, and a corporate-cum-environmental story!Distinctly original.' The New York Times 'No doubt about it: Jonathan Franzen is one of the most extraordinary writers around.' Newsweek 'Ingeniously put together!His ear for American vernacular is flawless!His gift for description has a kinetic immediacy.' The Seattle Times 'Bold, layered!an elaborate construct, with the stuff of several books crammed into one!An affirmation of Franzen's fierce imagination and distinctive seriocomic voice.' New York Times Book Review
