A Midwestern mother wants to gather her three scattered children for one last Christmas while her husband sinks into Parkinson's. The great novel of the American family at the turn of the century.

✍️ ChatZona's review

Franzen dissects a family with a blend of cruelty and compassion few achieve. Long, yes, but brilliant.
