An epic Greek family saga spanning generations! Hermaphrodites! Incest! Love! The rise and fall of family fortunes! Although this book is one part sensationalist family drama it is redeemed from pure guilty pleasure status by Eugenides' excellent writing and attention to detail in exploring the experience of an intersex person. I found it totally absorbing, only occasionally dragging, minimally overdone, and often quite poignant.
