Note: Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 2002. Limba: Engleză Subiect: literatură engleză (Noua Zeelandă) - roman Subiect: roman Subiect: carte în limba engleză Sumar sau abstract: Middlesex tells the breathtaking story of Calliope Stephanides and three generations of the Greek-American Stephanides family who travel from a tiny village overlooking Mount Olympus in Asia Minor to Prohibition-era Detroit, witnessing its glory days as the Motor City, and the race riots of 1967, before they move out to the tree-lined streets of suburban Grosse Pointe, Michigan. To understand why Calliope is not like other girls, she has to uncover a guilty family secret and the astonishing genetic history that turns Callie into Cal, one of the most audacious and wondrous narrators in contemporary fiction.
And so begins Middlesex, the mesmerizing saga of a near-mythic Greek American family and the roller-coaster ride of a single gene through time. The odd, but utterly believable, story of Cal Stephanides, and how this 41-year-old hermaphrodite was raised as Calliope, is at the tender heart of this long-awaited second novel from Jeffrey Eugenides, whose elegant and haunting 1993 debut, The Virgin Suicides, remains one of the finest first novels of recent memory.Cota topografică: Limba engleză/E89 Clasificare: 821.111(73)-31 Decorații/Premii: Pulitzer 2002
