Freedom
THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER βA masterpieceβ New York Times βStupendous, magnificent, unforgettable, witty and rich. A great American novelβ Spectator
A gripping Sunday Times bestselling contemporary literary fiction novel
An international bestseller and the novel of the year, Freedom is an epic of contemporary love and marriage.
This is the story of the Berglunds, their son Joey, their daughter Jessica and their friend Richard Katz. It is about how we use and abuse our freedom; about the beginning and ending of love; teenage lust; the unexpectedness of adult life; why we compete with our friends; how we betray those closest to us; and why things almost never work out as they should. It is a story about the human heart, and what it leads us to do to ourselves and each other.
