Book Review of Middlesex

Middlesex
Middlesex
Author: Jeffrey Eugenides
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on


The book opens with the protagonist's birth in January of 1960, which happened to when I was born too, so Cal's descriptions of society in his/her teen years hit right home with me. A wonderfully described family history from Greece to Detroit with accurately described observations of the times. An excellent read.
