The Discomfort Zone: A Personal History by Jonathan Franzen

4.0

Jonathan Franzen, of the critically acclaimed The Corrections, is very, very smart, and his keen intelligence blazes through his writing (so does his self-satisfaction, but that’s another story!) He has an acerbic eye, which he unsparingly turns on himself as well as others in this insightful memoir collection. Along the way he considers such topics such as bird watching, Peanuts & learning languages, to name a few, and I enjoyed his self-reflections and musings.
