The Well-Bred Monster

There's a novel coming out in August 2007 that sounds fascinating. The narrator of First Person Plural, by Andrew Beierle, is one member of a set of conjoined twins, one of whom is gay and the other straight. Two heads, one body. I've read the first chapter (available on the author's website); the prose is well-written and the topic, which could easily slide into camp humor, instead appears to be considered humanely and with level insight. I'm looking forward to seeing where Mr. Beierle goes with the story.
