When I noticed that The Marriage Plot was being released this fall, I figured I would start my Eugenides voyage with the new novel and then decide whether to explore the previous two. I have to confess that I am not one of them - while I own copies of both previous works, I haven’t got to them yet. Given that, I think it is a safe assumption that millions of readers have been eagerly awaiting his third novel. His first novel, The Virgin Suicides, is also highly-regarded, so we can assume it had impressive sales as well.
