Chang and Eng

This novel tells the story of Chang and Eng Bunker, the conjoined twins who became a fabled human oddity in the nineteenth century. Taken from Thailand as adolescents, they toured the world's stages, facing both celebrity and mockery. The twins eventually married two sisters and raised twenty-one children, navigating a fascinating and unlikely romantic journey. The most profound relationship they endured, however, was their own, as narrated by Eng, from their humble beginnings to their North Carolina home.
