En savoir plus sur le livre
Many historians claim the sideshow began with P.T. Barnum; however this phenomenon has existed as long as human curiosity. When something different or unusual appears before you -- living or inanimate -- you're intrigued, amazed, or maybe even disgusted. But you want to see it. It's natural to be curious about oddities. The human body takes many different forms and shapes, some considered "freakish." Freaks have always been, and will always be, fascinating. Yet regardless of their physical abnormalities, the people presented here triumphed over their disadvantages, defied expectations, succeeded financially, and often found love. This book is not only a look at their lives -- their trials, their tribulations, their triumphs -- but also a visual record of the uniqueness of humanity. -- From publisher's description
