Date: February 29th, 2012 7:59 PM Author: offensive lay national security agency The mid-1990s were evidently a difficult period for Franzen. Although he was a Guggenheim fellow in 1996, the profits from his first two books were gone, his marriage to Cornell finally dissolved in 1996, and his father died of Alzheimer's on Tuesday, May 16, 1995, at Betehsda Dilwroth Memorial Home in Kirkwood, Missouri. Earl Franzen was cremated with a memorial service on June 3, the last time Franzen was seen in public with Cornell. This cluster of landmark events signaled the end of an era for Franzen, who told Donald Antrium: "Not long after that, something loosened up. There was a space in which I could actually start to write again, a little bit, something that was mine and not ours" ("Jonathan Franzen" 75). During this period Franzen had entertained serious doubts about his vocation. He reflected: "I reaced such a low point. I was so discouraged with fiction . . . I was even thinking of temping or becoming a paralegal. And it occurred to me that I had written these two good novels, and it was not really approproate for me to go and word-process at a law firm. And that maybe I should think about doing some journalism. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1886902&forum_id=2#20085637) |
