JEFFREY EUGENIDES was born in Detroit and attended Brown and Stanford universities. The Virgin Suicides was published in 1993 and was adapted into a motion picture in 1999 by Sophia Coppola. His second novel, Middlesex, won the Pulitzer Prize in 2003. He joined the faculty of Princeton University in the fall of 2007.
First published in 1993, "The Virgin Suicides" announced the arrival of a major new American novelist. In a quiet suburb of Detroit, the five Lisbon sisters--beautiful, eccentric, and obsessively watched by the neighborhood boys--commit suicide one by one over the course of a single year. As the boys observe them from afar, transfixed, they piece together the mystery of the family's fatal melancholy, in this hypnotic and unforgettable novel of adolescent love, disquiet, and death. Jeffrey Eugenides evokes the emotions of youth with haunting sensitivity and dark humor and creates a coming-of-age story unlike any of our time. Adapted into a critically acclaimed film by Sofia Coppola, "The Virgin Suicides" is a modern classic, a lyrical and timeless tale of sex and suicide that transforms and mythologizes suburban middle-American life.

评分到了最后一章,基本是一目十行的看。这本书所呈现的样子和我的期待不一样。 我喜欢序言所说的:自杀是真正严肃的哲学问题;死亡是生命中不得不承认的一部分。结束自己生命的原因在于必然要滑向这个结果的人的宿命感,这一宿命感是许多人绕不过、逃不掉的阴影,笼罩在他们活着...
评分对于整个故事的叙述者来说,他所经历的少年算是美好的还是阴郁的?书中的“我们”是一群永远都不识愁滋味的小屁孩儿,他们成群结队,带着青涩的刚刚破土而出的粉刺,呼啸而来。他们是这个小镇的观察者,记述者,不论白天黑夜,永远亢奋,荷尔蒙分泌旺盛。 这种风格这让我想起...
