A review by romyomola
The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides

dark emotional tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

unsure whether the unreliability of the narrator is intentional. I read it as an exploration of the projections society puts on young women and how they crush us, but it could equally be read as a titillating perverted description of deeply disturbed young girls.
