Very nice piece, I can't help but wonder why these brothers turned out the way they did! Strange things indeed!

Thanks Milla - and thanks Rosie. I love the picture 
There's not really very much written about the Collyers, and not very much attempts to explain why they ended up as hoarders. I have suspicions that it had something to do with their mysterious relationship with their parents, but that's just irresponsible, blind speculation.

I have known people like them. It is a mix of the Diógenes syndrom and meanness, solitude...
