Status Updates From Middlesex

dipping my toes in the book with the first chapter; ‘middlesex’ isn’t just already well written but also a good companion piece to ‘the odyssey’. ‘middlesex’ feels quietly mythological, as if the gods above still tamper with the mortals’ conflicts. visions, magic, curses, incest; it’s all there! not to mention, tiresias and homer both get mentioned. nice!
