Middlesex: Update
I'm about 30 pages into Middlesex and I'm truly intrigued. I especially enjoy how the narrator is telling his/her story before being conceived. Or as Eugenides puts it..."In the greenroom to the world, I waited." Very clever.Barnes & Noble has an excellent webpage devoted to Jeffrey Eugenides. I noticed that one of his favourite books of all time is Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov, a novel that has been on my 'to read' list for a while. I think our next book should be trailblazing and controversial.
In the mean-time, I hope everyone is enjoying Caliope's (or Cal's) story as much as I am. Happy reading!
