“Winding narrative takes a while to develop. Eugenides uses a flowery prose that paints a vivid picture. Things pick up towards the end. A couple of times the narrator tips off what's going to happen which spoils a couple of major plot developments. I know Calliope, the narrator, has an omniscient view point, but odd to me nonetheless.”
