Eugenides’ first novel, The Virgin Suicides, was the basis for the much-acclaimed film directed by Sofia Coppola. His writings have appeared in The New Yorker, The Paris Review, and Best American Short Stories, and he has received a Whiting Writer’s Award, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and an NEA Fellowship. Jonathan Franzen has called Middlesex, Eugenides’ sophomore effort, “a weird, wonderful novel.”
