Soledad, the desert artist who accompanies Hilary home, hopes this trip will be the start of their new life together. The 'fun and games' in which Louis and Hilary involve Soledad are a lacerating look at their twisted relationship. Louis has something Hilary desperately needs, and Hilary has something Louis cannot live without. Both will fight to the death not to give it to each other. In their family, this is called love. c74 Written by Anonymous Louis may be brilliant and he may be suicidal, but he has the keys to the car. Hilary may be seductive and she may be falling apart, but she is his sister. These two are as far from average as any middle-class Phoenix siblings can get. Louis and Hilary combine the vulgar and the poetic as they badger, berate and bewitch each other. Louis has something Hilary desperately needs, and Hilary has something Louis cannot live without. Both will fight to the death not to give it to each other. And it all takes place with company in the house. Written by Sujit R. Varma
