What I Read and How I Found It

The Marriage Plot: A Novel by Jeffrey Eugenides
Published by: Farrar, Straus and Giroux/Macmillan

I learned about the new Eugenides long before I started this Tumblr, so I’m not entirely sure how I first heard about it. I’m a longtime fan, having read his first novel, The Virgin Suicides, when it was published—and maybe even as a galley. (That was a looong time ago.)

I suspect I learned about this new book more than a year ago when its publication was announced in one of the trade journals and then spread like wildfire through Twitter.
