I'm a bit more than 4% of the way through Jonathan Franzen's collection of essays, entitled How to Be Alone, and I'm enjoying it very much. (Although I must add that I don't recommend it to depressives or others contemplating their mortality. The first essay is about his father's descent into Alzheimer's.)
I haven't read the Corrections or anything else by Franzen. But I like his writing style and his rejection of that uber narcicisst Oh-Oh-Oh just shut the hell up already Winfrey.
And I must get Sedaris's latest, Dress Your Children in Corduroy & Denim, or vice versa.
