: :
: Geek Love is the story of the Binewskis, a carny family whose mater- and :
: paterfamilias set out--with the help of amphetamine, arsenic, and :
: radioisotopes--to breed their own exhibit of human oddities. There's 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 precious--and dangerous--asset. :
: :
: 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. :
