«Les Corrections» is the novel by Jonathan Franzen, published by POINTS in paperback format (696 pages, in French).
Beneath an ordinary appearance, the Lamberts hide impulses they dare not confess. Enid, Alfred and their three children oscillate between conflict and reconciliation as they try to understand their contradictions and the weight of what they inherited from their parents. Fierce humour shapes a portrait of family life in which cruelty and greatness coexist.

For readers of contemporary and literary fiction who enjoy portraits of family life and American society.
