Made to Order at Juniper Custom in Boulder, Colorado

Since The Corrections appeared in 2001, Jonathan Franzen has stood among the defining American novelists of his century. Winner of the National Book Award and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, he writes sprawling, satirical, deeply humane family novels that have drawn comparisons to Dickens and Tolstoy. This set gathers three of them in custom jackets emblazoned with his signature glasses, an unmistakable emblem across the shelf. It is a set for the reader of big, ambitious novels, and for the book club that loves a good argument.

FAQs

Where should a new reader begin?
With The Corrections, the story of the Lambert family's last Christmas together, which won the National Book Award.

Are the novels connected?
No. Each stands alone, though all three share Franzen's fascination with families, marriage and the moral life of modern America.

Why the glasses?
Franzen's dark-rimmed glasses have become as recognizable as his prose, a playful signature for the set.
