This is the tale of a gene that passes down through three generations and flowers in the teenage body of Callie. Thanks to this gene, she begins to realise she is part girl, part boy. What results is a fable of the intricacies of gender and the untidy promptings of desire.

Review of 'Middlesex' on 'Goodreads'

Book Club. A bit too focused on "relationships" for my taste, but lots of interesting history and solid characters.
