u/Alarming-Foot-2184

I just finished reading Jonathan Franzen’s ‘The Corrections’ which i pushed through and never really connected with.

Going through my goodreads ‘to read’ list and these are some options that stand out as both highly rated and completely different direction from the Franzen novel.

Giovanni’s Room, James Baldwin
A Tree grows in Brooklyn, Betty Smith
Still Life, Sarah Winman
The Boy and his Dog, Seishu Hase
Madonna in a Fur Coat, Sabahattin Ali
The Waves, Virginia Woolf
Song of Solomon, Toni Morrison
The Years, Annie Ernaux
Áqua Viva, Clarice Lispector
Station Eleven, Emily St. John Mandel

Any thoughts or recommendations?
