Fat Charlie Nancy is niet dik. Al twintig jaar niet meer. Hij is wel woedend, in de war en meer dan een beetje bang. Want zijn leven staat volledig op zijn kop en dat is allemaal de schuld van zijn vader.
Als die gênant grappenmaker niet dood was gebleven op een karaokepodium, zou Charlie nog steeds geen enkel idee hebben van de ware identiteit van zijn oude heer. En hij zou evenmin weten dat hij een broer heeft die Spider heet, met dezelfde sinistere bovennatuurlijke gaven als hun vader.
En dan zou die broer niet zijn leven overgenomen hebben. En zijn flat. En zijn verloofde. En álles beter doen dan hij. Charlie voelt zich even machteloos als een vlieg in een spinnenweb. Daarom neemt hij onorthodoxe maatregelen: een voodooritueel dat Spieder voorgoed uit zijn buurt moet houden.
Maar krijgt Charlie zijn leven terug als het duister ontwaakt? Of staat hij op de drempel van een hele nieuwe onderwereld van pijn? Elke gave, elk ritueel, elk web heeft een prijs...

Work Description
Anansi Boys is a fantasy novel by English writer Neil Gaiman. In the novel, "Mr. Nancy" — an incarnation of the West African trickster god Anansi — dies, leaving twin sons, who in turn discover one another's existence after being separated as young children. The novel follows their adventures as they explore their common heritage. Although it is not a sequel to Gaiman's previous novel American Gods, the character of Mr. Nancy appears in both books.
Anansi Boys was published on 20 September 2005 and was released in paperback on 1 October 2006. The book debuted at number one on The New York Times Best Seller list, and won both the Locus Award and the British Fantasy Society Award in 2006.
