Produktinformationen zu „The Family Fang “
Great art is difficult the motto of the Family Fang. Buster and Annie spent their childhood starring in their parents madcap performance art pieces. Now grown up, they struggle to adjust to life outside that strange world. Then the lives theyve built come crashing down, leaving nowhere to go but home where their parents plan for one last performance, whether the kids agree or not.
Klappentext zu „The Family Fang “
Caleb and Camille Fang have dedicated their lives to making great art. But for their children, Annie and Buster, who have been unwillingly involved in their parents' crazy performances for as long as they can remember, their 'art' is an embarrassment.
As soon as the children grow up they flee home, desperate to escape the chaos of their parents' world. But when the lives they've built come crashing down, brother and sister have no choice but to go back. And whether the kids agree to participate or not, Caleb and Camille are planning one last performance that will finally determine what's more important: their family or their art.
The Family Fang is an utterly unique, moving and hilarious novel about one of life's greatest mysteries: the relationship between parents and their children.
