Murderous virgins

“The Virgin Suicides” is the first novel by the American writer of Greek origin, Jeffrey Eugenides (1960), based on which the famous American director, Sofia Coppola, shot a full-length film. In the 70s of the last century, in the city of Grosse Pointe, Michigan, the tragic events that occurred in the Lisbon family do not have an unambiguous explanation. At first glance, each step of ordinary American teenagers - the Lisbon girls - is both terrifyingly logical and illogical at the same time. The thirst for life and love, sexual desire, and the desire for freedom are presented to us fatally transformed in this book by Jeffrey Eugenides.
