description Middlesex Overview
Jeffrey Eugenides 2002 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel is a sprawling, epic family saga that spans generations and continents. The story follows the life of Cal Stephanides, who discovers in adolescence that he is intersex. Through Cals narration, the book explores themes of identity, genetics, and the immigrant experience, moving from 1920s Greece to the riots of 1960s Detroit. It is a rich, deeply human story that manages to be both a grand historical epic and an intimate, funny, and moving coming-of-age tale.
