Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A novel by Jeffrey Eugenides published in 2002 which went on to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction.Calliope (later Cal) Stephanides was born with a rare genetic condition that caused her to look externally female, but in adolescence begin developing male characteristics.That's not really the point, though. Most of the book is a Generational Saga which recounts the story of Cal's parents and grandparents who happened to make such a trait possible. | |

Adult Fear | |
| Middlesex / int_46118dc5 | comment |
Adult Fear: This starts kicking in full when Callie has an accident while running from the Object's brother. She's confused why the doctors are so concerned since she wasn't hurt that badly. Then she finds a report revealing she was actually born as a pseudohermaphrodite, and runs away on realizing the corrective surgery will remove the organs that identify them as a male. Callie becomes Cal, and vanishes for several points. Their family is understandably frantic. | |
