Euphoria is Lily King's nationally bestselling breakout novel of three young, gifted anthropologists of the '30's caught in a passionate love triangle that threatens their bonds, their careers, and, ultimately, their lives. Inspired by events in the life of revolutionary anthropologist Margaret Mead, Euphoria is "dazzling ... suspenseful ... brilliant...an exhilarating novel."--Boston Globe

While the subject of anthropology was interesting to explore, the story itself was difficult to follow. Also, the author seemed to hurry the ending. Short chapters with dramatic shifts in the story; most chapters were long.
