"Part work of fiction, part art folio, Max and The Siamese Twins tells a twisted tale of two brothers, joined mentally and physically from birth, and their adventures in a world full of cruelty, lust and depravity. Hope comes unexpectedly in the form of twin sisters, performers at a seedy burlesque in the heart of the City. But trouble soon follows, as it most often does!

Max and The Siamese Twins is lavishly illustrated in full color with paintings by over 40 of the leading artists in the underground art world. Each artist explores her/his own unique vision of the psychological, physical and metaphorical aspects of existence as a co-joined twin.

Dark, disturbing, often erotic, often humorous, Max and The Siamese Twins is a journey into the shadowy soul of Max Stout, as well as the collective souls of a group of extremely talented and compelling artists.



"Metaphysical siamese erotica and great art. What more could one ask for in a book?"

- Artist Chet Zar



"This is a new dirty twist on the Siamese twins story. Perverse and fun."

- Jonathan Levine of Jonathan Levine Gallery



"An entertaining short story rich in dark and disturbing material excavated from the underworld of a twisted imagination inspired by sibling rivalry, the resurgence of vaudeville and burlesque, and pickled punks."

- Christiane Cegavska (Blood Tea and Red String)
