  • Crossroads ist ein Roman des amerikanischen Schriftstellers Jonathan Franzen, der im Jahr 2021 beim Verlag Farrar, Straus and Giroux erschien. Im selben Jahr veröffentlichte der Rowohlt Verlag die deutsche Übersetzung von Bettina Abarbanell. Der Roman ist der Auftakt einer geplanten Trilogie unter dem Titel Ein Schlüssel zu allen Mythologien (im englischen Original: A Key to All Mythologies), die sich über drei Generationen einer Familie aus dem Mittleren Westen der USA spannen soll. Der Roman ist Anfang der 1970er Jahre im fiktiven New Prospect, einem Vorort von Chicago, angesiedelt. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die Mitglieder der Familie Hildebrandt: der evangelische Pastor Russ Hildebrandt, seine Frau Marion und ihre vier Kinder Clem, Becky, Perry und Judson. Der Roman ist abwechselnd aus der Perspektive der Familienmitglieder erzählt. Der Titel Crossroads ist auch der Name einer religiösen Jugendgruppe der Gemeinde, die Russ Hildebrandt gegründet hat und einige seiner Kinder besuchen. (de)
  • Crossroads è un romanzo di Jonathan Franzen, pubblicato il 5 ottobre 2021 e uscito in Italia nella traduzione di Silvia Pareschi.L'autore ha presentato il libro come il primo di una trilogia, A Key to All Mythologies , che dovrebbe seguire l'arco di tre generazioni dai primi anni Settanta (nei quali è ambientato Crossroads) ai giorni nostri. Il romanzo è centrato sulla famiglia Hildebrandt: il pastore Russ, sua moglie Marion, i quattro figli Clem, Becky, Perry, Judson. La maggior parte delle vicende si svolge in una cittadina di fantasia, New Prospect, nel circondario di Chicago, in un contesto borghese dove ha un ruolo importante l'associazione cristiana giovanile Crossroads (letteralmente incrocio). Il libro è diviso in due parti, "Avvento" e "Pasqua"; i vari capitoli seguono ognuno un personaggio, di cui viene assunto il punto di vista. Progressivamente sono messe in evidenza le difficoltà di relazione, la crisi della famiglia, la dipendenza dalla droga, i difficili rapporti con chi non appartiene a quella società (i neri dei sobborghi di Chicago, una comunità Navajo in Arizona).
