The Twenty-Seventh City

The critically acclaimed second novel from Jonathan Franzen, author of the prize-winning and internationally bestselling The Corrections.

St Louis, Missouri, is a quietly dying river city until it hires a new police chief: a charismatic young woman from Bombay, India, named S. Jammu. No sooner has Jammu been installed than the city's leading citizens become embroiled in an all-pervasive political conspiracy. A classic of contemporary fiction, The Twenty-Seventh City shows us an ordinary metropolis turned inside out, and the American Dream unravelling into terror and dark comedy.
