Jeff Eugenides discusses and reads Middlesex: A Novel. Winner of this year’s Pulitzer Prize in fiction, Middlesex tells the breathtaking story of three generations of the Stephanides family. “Part Tristam Shandy, part Ishmael, part Holden Caulfield, Cal is a wonderfully engaging narrator…A deeply affecting portrait of one family’s tumultuous engagement with the American twentieth century.” New York Times. Eugenides is the author of The Virgin Suicides, published to great acclaim in 1993.

“A towering achievement…Eugenides has emerged as the great American writer that many of us suspected him of being.” - Los Angeles Times Book Review.
