Taken from Thailand as adolescents, Chang and Eng toured the world's stages, finding celebrity while performing in a cage. Fighting for respect their whole lives, they were greeted by royalty and yet mocked by carnival crowds. The twins married two sisters and embarked on one of history's most fascinating and unlikely romantic journeys as they fathered twenty-one children. But the most compelling and mysterious relationship they endured was their own.

Chang and Eng is an unforgettable and sublimely moving story that reveals above all the longings and humanity of these remarkable twins.
