Jonathan Franzen, Novelist

So much of our developed world culture is driven by the instant, all pervasive internet. Our opinions, our fantasies, our lives, delivered in bite sized chunks, consumed with a glance and a click. Jonathan Franzen writes novels, long novels, that take years to complete and days, not minutes to read. He's become one of the defining voices in contemporary American literature, why does he hate so much of the culture around him?
