Juxtaposing the common with the gothic, and the humorous with the tragic, author Jeffrey Eugenides creates a vivid and compelling portrait of youth and lost innocence. He takes readers back to the elm-lined streets of suburbia in the '70s and introduces them to the men whose lives were forever changed as boys by their fierce, awkward obsession with five doomed sisters: brainy Therese, fastidious Mary, ascetic Bonnie, libertine Lux, and pale, saintly Cecilia, whose spectacular demise inaugurates "the year of the suicides". This is the debut novel that caused a sensation and won immediate acclaim from the critics -- a tender, wickedly funny tale of love and terror, sex and suicide, memory and imagination.
