ReceptionIn The New York Times Book Review, the essayist Phillip Lopate wrote the pieces "demonstrate [Franzen's] generosity, humanity and love of fiction, as well as his own preference for the morally complex over the sentimental. The struggle to be a good human being, against the pulls of solipsism and narcissism, can be glimpsed in every page of these essays, which if nothing else offer a telling battle report from within the consciousness of one of our major novelists."[1] In the English newspaper The Guardian, writer and critic Geoff Dyer found advances over Franzen's previous essay collection, How to Be Alone: "Franzen seems more gregarious than he was in How to be Alone...These essays are exemplary instances of reader-friendly criticism in that they can be studied profitably even by people unfamiliar with the works in question. They also display [a] related side-effect of becoming a great novelist. That the great novelist is, by default, a great reader...One way or another, the essays in Farther Away are attempts to enlarge the place where literature, and the responsiveness to it, can be preserved."[2] References1. ^Phillip Lopate, "Manageable Discontent," The New York Times Book Review, May 20, 2012. 2. ^[https://www.theguardian.com/books/2012/jun/10/farther-away-jonathan-franzen-review Geoff Dyer, "Farther Away by Jonathan Franzen: Jonathan Franzen meditates on marriage and mobiles in these largely brilliant essays," The Guardian, 10 June 2012.] External links
