From the National Book Award-winning author of The Corrections , a darkly comedic novel about family
Patty and Walter Berglund were the new pioneers of old St. Paulthe gentrifiers, the hands-on parents, the avant-garde of the Whole Foods generation. Patty was the ideal sort of neighbor, who could tell you where to recycle your batteries and how to get the local cops to actually do their job. She was an enviably perfect mother and the wife of Walter’s dreams. Together with Walterenvironmental lawyer, commuter cyclist, total family manshe was doing her small part to build a better world.
But now, in the new millennium, the Berglunds have become a mystery. Why has their teenage son moved in with the aggressively Republican family next door? Why has Walter taken a job working with Big Coal? What exactly is Richard Katzoutré rocker and Walter’s college best friend and rivalstill doing in the picture? Most of all, what has happened to Patty? Why has the bright star of Barrier Street become a very different kind of neighbor,” an implacable Fury coming unhinged before the street’s attentive eyes?
In his first novel since The Corrections , Jonathan Franzen has given us an epic of contemporary love and marriage. Freedom comically and tragically captures the temptations and burdens of liberty: the thrills of teenage lust, the shaken compromises of middle age, the wages of suburban sprawl, the heavy weight of empire. In charting the mistakes and joys of Freedom ’s intensely realized characters as they struggle to learn how to live in an ever more confusing world, Franzen has produced an indelible and deeply moving portrait of our time.

平面的文字写出生活的一切维度 只看我能体会几重
评分Didn't finish it. Against all the rave reviews I find the book a duller and far less smart re-write of Rabbit Run. Franzen's style simply does nothing for me: among all the indirect narrations I feel I am only scraping off the surface of the characters instead of living their worlds through them.
评分好书好书!
评分回家来将近两个星期,总算把这本书读完了。爱情还是最美好的呀,能让人丢开一切丑陋的东西,只要爱的那个人在身边。真羡慕作家,可以构想出那么多人的生活和命运。

这是一本受畅销书排行榜的影响购入的书,小说。衡量一本杰出的小说的依据是什么?第一是代入感,第二是真实,第三是对隐藏事物的解密。代入感,就是那种觉得里面的一个场景如同发生在自己身上的似曾相识。这本书做到了。翻译也很好,没有读到任何刻意做作和明显的翻译问题。美...
评分不写书评不能点看过,这可真憋死我了…… 《自由》据说是畅销书?拿到的时候主任问我好不好看,我想了一下,说道:“美国的畅销书,应该会比较好读了,要是法国的德国的恐怕我都不敢在完全不了解作者情节等等的情况下买了。” — — 结果是,不怎么好读,没搞懂怎么就畅销了...
评分《2666》这本书因为太过扯淡,看到一半已经杯扔在一边了。悲催的是这书还是我花了正版的价钱在天猫买的,我想,一个小说家怎么能把小说写成这样——卡夫卡的小说我都能记住他的主人公基本叫k,王小波的小说主人公基本叫王二,2666的主人公我不知道叫什么——他真是该死,还好...
