Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides

September 26th, 2007 by Sara

Virgin SuicidesJennifer Hunt at Little, Brown suggested I read this book after she read my work. She mentioned it as an example of dark, internal writing that worked wonderfully and kept its humor. It’s a strange, but brilliant book, written with an incredibly unique narrator. It keeps you wondering, fascinated, and engaged the entire time.

ReviewHaiku for Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides

The ‘Why’ continues
Over years, affairs, and deaths.
But no one can know.

Posted in Books, Haiku review, I heart this book

Your words make me smile,
Glad you liked my poem. Mostly,
Glad your head’s still whole.
