“The architecture of Middlesex was an attempt to rediscover pure origins.”

“In the distance, lit by the rising sun, was the skyline of New York. It wasn’t the right shape for a city—no domes, no minarets—it took them a minute to process the tall geometric forms. Most curled off the bay. A million pink windowpanes glittered. Closer, crowned with her own sun rays and dressed like a classical Greek, the Statue of Liberty welcomed them.”
