Greenlight Moms Book Group reads Freedom by Jonathan Franzen

Local moms Sharon and Satya host this group of Fort Greene moms who come together to read contemporary fiction and nonfiction.  

This month, the book group is reading Freedom by Jonathan Franzen.  The follow up to The Corrections, Jonathan Franzen tells a tale of an epic of contemporary love and marriage. 

Freedom illustrates the beauty of the temptations and burdens of liberty: the thrills of teenage lust, the shaken compromises of middle age, the wages of suburban sprawl, the heavy weight of empire. Indulge in the mistakes and joys of Walter and Patty Berglund as they struggle to learn how to live in an ever more confusing world.
