Review

Rating: 6

I find it the book amusing. It was a morbid read. Suicides and teenagers.

It began with a 13-year old girl hurls herself out of a window and impales herself on the iron fence that runs around her family’s house. That death loomed the entire neighborhood.

Their mother keep them (the girls) lived under the strict order while the father seems to be weak, not wearing the pants. The narration in the book coming from the boys who curious about these girls make it mysteriously intriguing.

Jeffrey Eugenides had his descriptive in detail. Rather more artsy type than pure details. His perspective of the lives in 70s reflected the easy life in suburban.

I guess in the end it is just about sex and growing up.
