4 of 5 stars

This Greek family saga, as narrated by a hermaphrodite, has many pages, but I flicked through them easily like so many moistened labia. Moments of tragedy lay concealed within, like undescended testes, but warm humour dominated, swelling forth like a budding penis.

Emer So how many moistened labia does this hermaphrodite have?

That author stole my Middlesex joke.

Chris Gager It's different... Sort of a psychedelic, film-comic book mash-up from the 60's. Mr. Stamp has an interesting role.
