Jibran Ali jibranali005 — After completing "Middlesex" by Eugenides I am feeling really mixed about my review. What I loved: This is a story that follows several generations of one family (one of my favorite plot lines). I enjoy growing up with a family and learning about how family history influences characters. I also enjoy contemporary American historical fiction; the details about immigration from Turkey to Detroit and then the examination of being Greek in the midwest, and of course the history of Detroit (car industry, race riots, etc.) as a backdrop to the storyline. I also liked the inclusion of the medical/psychological scenes when Calli's body is being studied. I haven't researched this yet, but I plan to find out if the doctor in the story is real and if the doctor really published reports on someone like Calli. What I didn't love: it was so long and overly detailed. There were times I would roll my eyes or groan out loud in impatience. I wanted Eugenides to hurry up and get to what I was interested in (i.e., Calli's emotional reaction to her physical condition and her discovery of sexuality). Also I listened to this as an audio book and had some issues with the voice and inclusion of music. The reader tried to sound Greek at times but occasionally sounded Jewish or like a Brooklyn-nite. Every so often, the producers included music to fade out or into a track on the CD but it was never well placed. Sometimes in faded in and out of the same scene. I just didn't get it. Overall, this was a good book. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had read it instead of listening to it. I would recommend this book to someone who also likes stories about family geneology and American history. And to those who are open minded, and curious about the lives of those who are marginalized and misunderstood.
