purity
Jonathan Franzen
RRP $32.99
Purity is a dark-hued comedy of youthful
idealism, extreme fidelity, and murder.
Jonathan Franzen has created yet another
cast of original characters and he follows
their intertwining paths through landscapes
as contemporary as the omnipresent Internet
and as ancient as the war between the sexes.
This is his edgiest and most searching book
yet.
