Location: Unity Temple, 707 W. 47th St. Author Jonathan Franzen discusses his new book Freedom, his first novel since The Corrections. Patty and Walter Berglund were the new pioneers of old St. Paul, Minnesota, and ideal neighbors. But in the new millennium, they are a mystery. Freedom is an epic of contemporary love and marriage that captures the thrills of teenage lust, the compromises of middle age, and the weight of empire.
