Middlesex and the City

As we all wrap up Middlesex, I thought there was time for one final post before we meet (Feb 24th). Here is list of random links that are related to the book.

* Greek Mythology: Antigone & Tiresias & Hermaphroditus

* Interview with Eugenides on the topic of Middlesex (warning, contains spoilers)

* Negative Review: The Economist
* Mixed Review: The New York Magazine
* Positive Review: CNN.com

* Reading Guide #1

As I approach the end of this book, I am appreciating how many offshoots of information (science, history, literature etc.) that Middlesex contains. That being said, I have felt very disconnected from the characters in the story. Regardless, I’ll leave the final verdict for when I’m done and had time to discuss and reflect.
