shit hack derivative same
derivative of who specifically?
...
I thought it was very funny and of its time...200? I can't remember when.
Much better than either Freedom or Purity , imo.
Memes meming memes about memes you never read.
I enjoyed Freedom more and haven't yet read Purity yet. And yeah, I agree about it being "of its time." Both Freedom and The Corrections have that strong feeling.
umm how?
A complete disgrace. Franzen is a fucking hack and should be convicted for using The Recognitions as an inspiration.
If anything, Franzen is derivative of, (BTW, all fiction is derivative, the idea of a canon, is that of a continuum, with works in conversation with each other) mid -century guys like John Updike, Philip Roth and Saul Bellow. But midwestern and WASPy.
