ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“Crossroads” by Jonathan Franzen explores the complexities of family dynamics, faith, and personal identity through the lives of the Hildebrandt family in the 1970s. At the center is Reverend Russ Hildebrandt, whose strict religious beliefs shape the lives of his wife and children. As each family member faces their own struggles—whether with faith, personal desires, or societal pressures—they are drawn into the transformative power of a youth group called Crossroads. The novel delves into themes of self-discovery, redemption, and the tension between individual freedom and familial expectations in a changing cultural landscape.
