Middlesex Book 3, Chapter 5

The Wolverette

• Not wanting his white daughter to go to a predominantly black school, Milton enrolls Calliope in boarding school. Maybe Paula Deen's family goes there too?
• The locker rooms bring out a lot of anxiety in Calliope since, developmentally, she's so far behind the other girls.
• She starts growing out her hair to hide from other girls… like Cousin Itt.
