A review by marisacarpico
Fresh Complaint by Jeffrey Eugenides

emotional reflective medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

I’ll read anything Eugenides writes, but this did reaffirm why I don’t care for short stories. Feels especially passé now in that literary boomer male way. (He’s probably Gen X, but you get what I’m saying.)
