Description
The Virgin Suicides is a haunting and unforgettable novel of adolescent love, disquiet, and death. In a quiet suburb of Detroit, the five Lisbon sisters commit suicide one by one over the course of a single year, leaving behind a mystery that the neighborhood boys can only piece together from afar.
With haunting sensitivity and dark humor, Jeffrey Eugenides evokes the emotions of youth, creating a coming-of-age story unlike any of our time. This beautifully packaged novel is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in a poignant and thought-provoking exploration of adolescent life.
First published in 1993, The Virgin Suicides has become a modern classic, adapted into a critically acclaimed film by Sofia Coppola. This paperback edition is part of Picador's Twentieth Anniversary Modern Classics line, featuring a unique design that's both small enough to fit in your pocket and unique enough to stand out on your bookshelf.
