The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen
2.0

In agonizing details, like a horrendous pointillistic picture, Franzen depicts a portrait of House Lambert, a nightmare of passive-aggressiveness, assholes and hollowed out papier-mache characters.
There are some strong brushstrokes here and there, but when you enter the playground belonging to Wallace and Pynchon, you definitely need a certain amount of genius to play along. Sorry Jonathan!
