But I want to be the one to write it

Next Great American Novel - Best New Books of 2009 - Esquire:

"The last great American novel was The Corrections, by Jonathan Franzen. And that was published in 2001. We're about due for a new one"


Don't get me wrong, I LOVE The Corrections, but it may be stretching to say that it deserves to be on the Great American Novel list.

Readers, and some of you are, what do you think? Which book published in the last decade deserves the accolade of Great American Novel?
