Jonathan Franzen's reading is our inaugural event in the new series. Writers in the Spotlight Series. Join National Book Award-winning author Jonathan Franzen at the Spotlight Café as he discusses his new novel, Freedom. Franzen is the author of The Corrections, winner of the 2001 National Book Award for fiction; the novels The Twenty-Seventh City and Strong Motion; and two collections of essays, How to Be Alone and The Discomfort Zone, all published by FSG. He lives in New York City. Freedom is a darkly comedic novel about family. Patty and Walter Berglund were the new pioneers of old St. Paul—the 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 Walter—environmental lawyer, commuter cyclist, total family man—she was doing her small part to build a better world. Tickets will be $6.00, on sale at Gibson's and at the Capitol Center (or their website). Reserve your seat early! This will be an exciting event!
