Learning English with Jonathan St. Jude, a city in Alfred, the retired engineer suffers from Parkinson's, his wife Enid has an obsession with order and saving, and their unsuccessful son Chip tries to find his fortune in New York. Jonathan Franzen describes with powerful language the emotional and relational web of a disintegrating family. The two narratives "St. Jude" and "The Failure" form the basis for the successful novel "The Corrections."
