From the reviews of Strong Motion:

‘An affirmation of Mr Franzen’s fierce imagination and distinctive seriocomic voice’

New York Times Book Review

‘Ingeniously put together … His ear for American vernacular is flawless … His gift for description has a kinetic immediacy’

Seattle Times

‘Lyrical, dramatic and, above all, fearless … We’re in the presence of a great American moralist in the tradition of Dreiser, Twain, or Sinclair Lewis’

Philadelphia Inquirer

‘By sheer force of his imaginative writing and his unsheathed views of American life, Mr Franzen succeeds in joining together a love story, a family story, and a corporate-cum-environmental story … Distinctly original’

New York Times

‘Heartwrenchingly real characters … perfect pitch … Franzen’s almost-Boston is shimmeringly alive and palpable’

San Diego Union-Tribune

‘A young writer of exceptional skill and vision … insightful … dazzling to behold … a brave author, not afraid to take tremendous risks’

Orlando Sentinel

‘Complicated and absorbing with a fair mix of intrigue, social commentary, and humor laced with a tinge of malice’

Washington Times

‘With this work, Franzen confidently assumes a position as one of the brightest lights of American letters … Part thriller, part comedy of manners, Strong Motion is full of suspense’

Cleveland Plain Dealer

‘[Franzen] is a writer of almost frightening talent and promise’

Miami Herald
