Critic Reviews

"Eugenides' voice is so fresh and compelling, his powers of observation so startling and acute, that most will be mesmerized....This is an auspicious debut from an imaginative and talented writer." ( Publishers Weekly)
"A finely crafted work of literary if slightly macabre imagination....A black, glittering novel that won't be to everyone's taste but must be tried by readers looking for something different." ( Library Journal)
"Mr. Eugenides is blessed with the storyteller's most magical gift, the ability to transform the mundane into the extraordinary." ( The New York Times Book Review)

it really reminded me of the secret history (“beauty is terror”) and I have a feeling Donna would have approved. It’s also a bit like pet Sematary with the sudden deaths. I never thought I would find a book to top TSH but this is REALLY close.

the story was great and the narrator has the appropriate wistfulness in his voice
