The critically acclaimed second novel from Jonathan Franzen, author of the prize-winning and internationally bestselling 'The Corrections'.
St Louis, Missouri, is a quietly dying river city until it hires a new police chief: a charismatic young woman from Bombay, India, named S. Jammu. No sooner has Jammu been installed than the city's leading citizens become embroiled in an all-pervasive political conspiracy.
A classic of contemporary fiction, this book shows us an ordinary metropolis turned inside out, and the American Dream unravelling into terror and dark comedy.
