Summary/Abstract: The imaginary in literature has been a fundamental building block for centuries and is still defined and redefined nowadays. It is the onset of literary creativity but, at the same time, it arises from real life and is interdependent with the author's biography. Jeffrey Eugenides is no exception and his most famous novels are perfect examples of how the imaginary stands at the basis of any true literary creation.
