I guess HBO is at some point going to come out with a Middlesex miniseries. Today’s Winner is from Izmir, in Turkey, where much of the early part of the book is set. I sure hope the TV program doesn’t shortchange too much of the Greeks-in-Turkey stuff in favor of Michigan, where the bulk of the action unfolds. Not that I didn't enjoy the Detroit parts; it's just that the two halves square up into a whole.
