A Study On The Socio-Cultural Aspects In Jonathan Franzen’s The Corrections
Abstract
Jonathan Franzen's The Corrections describes the optimistic approach to literature. The novel is in the context of the socio-cultural wars of the 1990s, with promising 'corrections' enhanced by the lost three Lambert siblings. As described, the adults were drawn to the volunteer capitals of the eastern seaboard of Manaus, escaping their parents' depressing protocol. They will continue in their lives. The sacred gods, though weakened by old age and its ancillary diseases. Franzen's The Corrections deliberately seeks to trace its account of the Lambert family within limited social and economic contexts. The end of the twentieth century saw a shift in the American economic treasury, affected by the market reform mentioned in the novel's title. The present paper analyses the socio-cultural aspects in Jonathan Franzen’s The Corrections.
