520    Nearly a decade after his triumphant Charlie Chan 
       biography, Yunte Huang returns with this long-awaited 
       portrait of Chang and Eng Bunker (1811-1874), twins 
       conjoined at the sternum by a band of cartilage and a 
       fused liver, who were "discovered" in Siam by a British 
       merchant in 1824. Bringing an Asian American perspective 
       to this almost implausible story, Huang depicts the twins,
       arriving in Boston in 1829, first as museum exhibits but 
       later as financially savvy showmen who gained their 
       freedom and traveled the backroads of rural America to 
       bring "entertainment" to the Jacksonian mobs. Their rise 
       from subhuman, freak-show celebrities to rich southern 
       gentry; their marriage to two white sisters, resulting in 
       twenty-one children; and their owning of slaves, is here 
       not just another sensational biography but a Hawthorne-
       like excavation of America's historical penchant for 
       finding feast in the abnormal, for tyrannizing the "other"
       -a tradition that, as Huang reveals, becomes inseparable 
       from American history itself.
