Jonathan Franzen’s novel ‘The Corrections’ was the publishing sensation of 2001. It won multiple awards and made its author a household name.

Rumors have swirled for years about possible movie and TV adaptations of the lengthy tome and now there are reports that producer Scott Rudin (’The Social Network,’ ‘There Will Be Blood’) and writer-director Noah Baumbach (’The Squid and the Whale,’ ‘Margot at the Wedding’) are close to a TV series deal with HBO.
