Jonathan Franzen (Western Springs, Illinois, 1959) was chosen in 1996 among the Best Young American Novelists by the prestigious Granta magazine. Until that date, he had written the novels Twenty-Seven City (1988) and Strong Motion (1992), but the explosion of his enormous narrative talent took place in 2001 with the release of The Corrections (Salamandra, 2012), which marked a turning point in his career: he won the National Book Award and the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, was a finalist for the Pulitzer and PEN/Faulkner awards, and was discovered by millions of readers around the world. The definitive endorsement came in 2010 with Freedom (Salamandra, 2011), a novel that received the most fervent praise from a wide array of critics and experts from various countries. In Spain, he won the Best Novel of the Year Award, given by the readers of Qué Leer magazine. Five years later, in the fall of 2015, the publication of Purity once again shocked English-speaking readers and established him as one of the great American writers of our time. Additionally, Franzen is the author of five non-fiction works: How to Be Alone (2002), The Discomfort Zone (2006), Farther Away (Salamandra, 2012), The Kraus Project (2013), and The End of the End of the Earth (Salamandra, 2019).
