middlesex-jefferey eugenides

i enjoyed this book, although it rarely felt anything like the virgin suicides, eugenides first novel, which sucked me in immediately. this one took a little longer for me to get into, and rarely did i feel the urgency to read it every spare moment i had. but it was very very good-the story spans three generations of a greek family who imigrates to america. it's about sex and gender and family. the main character, cal, is one of the most unique narrative voices i have ever read.
