Three gifted siblings bound by a troubled upbringing navigate fame, scandal, and co-dependent relationships, revealing how their emotional dependence on one another both sustains and ultimately threatens to destroy them.
When people play the game: Name three or four persons whom you would choose to have with you on a desert island – they never choose the Delaneys. They don't even choose us one by one as individuals. We have earned, not always fairly we consider, the reputation of being difficult guests . . .
Maria, Niall, and Celia have grown up in the shadow of their famous parents – their father, a flamboyant singer and their mother, a talented dancer. Now pursuing their own creative dreams, all three siblings feel an undeniable bond, but it is Maria and Niall who share the secret of their parents' pasts.
Alternately comic and poignant, The Parasites is based on the artistic milieu its author knew best, and draws the reader effortlessly into that magical world.
