Reviews
"An extraordinary epic.... nothing less than the story of the twentieth century itself." -The Times "Frank Bascombe has earned a place beside Willy Loman and Harry Angstrom in our literary landscape...with a wry wit and a fin de siècle wisdom that is very much his own." -The New York Times Book Review "Each flash of magical dialogue, every rumination a wild surprise....Independence Dayis a confirmation of a talent as strong and varied as American fiction has to offer." -The New York Review of Books "A Babe Ruth of novelists.... One of the finest curators of the great American living museum." -Washington Post Book World "One of his generation's most eloquent voices." - Michiko Kakutani,The New York Times From the Trade Paperback edition.

Synopsis
Frank Bascombe is no longer a sportswriter, yet he's still living in Haddam, New Jersey, where he now sells real estate. He's still divorced, though his ex-wife, to his dismay, has remarried and moved along with their children to Connecticut. But Frank is happy enough in his work and pursuing various civic and entrepreneurial sidelines. He has high hopes for this 4th of July weekend: a search for a house for deeply hapless clients relocating to Vermont; a rendezvous on the Jersey shore with his girlfriend; then up to Connecticut to pick up his larcenous and emotionally troubled teenage son and visit as many sports halls of fame as they can fit into two days. Frank's Independence Day, however, turns out not as he'd planned, and this decent, appealingly bewildered, profoundly observant man is wrenched, gradually and inevitably, out of his private refuge. Independence Day captures the mystery of life - in all its conflicted glory - with grand humour, intense compassion and transfixing power. From the Trade Paperback edition.
