About Middlesex:
Eugenides weaves together a kaleidoscopic narrative spanning 80 years of
a stained family history, from a fateful incestuous union in a small
town in early 1920s Asia Minor to Prohibition-era Detroit; from the
early days of Ford Motors to the heated 1967 race riots; from the tony
suburbs of Grosse Pointe and a confusing, aching adolescent love story
to modern-day Berlin. Eugenides's command of the narrative is
astonishing. He balances Cal/Callie's shifting voices convincingly,
spinning this strange and often unsettling story with intelligence,
insight, and generous amounts of humor.
