Here is the unforgettable story of the Binewskis, a circusgeek family whose matriarch and patriarch have bred their own exhibit of human odditieswith the help of amphetamines, arsenic, and radioisotopes.One of The Atlantic?s Great American Novels of the Past 100 YearsTheir offspring include Arturo the Aquaboy, who has flippers for limbs and a megalomaniac ambition worthy of Genghis Khan . . . Iphy and Elly, the lissome Siamese twins . . . albino hunchback Oly, and the outwardly normal Chick, whose mysterious gifts make him the family?s most preciousand dangerousasset.As the Binewskis take their act across the backwaters of the U.S., inspiring fanatical devotion and murderous revulsion; as its members conduct their own Machiavellian version of sibling rivalry, Geek Love throws its sulfurous light on our notions of the freakish and the normal, the beautiful and the ugly, the holy and the obscene. Family values will never be the same.
