This is a lyrical and atmospheric homage to the strange and extraordinary.
This is the story of The Greatest Funambulist Who Ever Lived....
Born in the post-war environment, the nameless star of the noval was unwanted and forgotten, abandoned in the shadows of the big top. Until the bright light of Serendipitary Wilson threw her into focus and takes her under her wing.
Now an adult,she is haunted by an incident in which a child was lost from the circus, the narrator, a tightrope artiste, weaves together her spellbinding story. This includes tales of the circus legends, earthy magic and folklore, and this is all in the hope of finding the child. However will her story be enough tp bring the pair together.
This beautifully and gripping noval brings together the circus and the life of its family in all of its grime and glory. All of the characters will live long in the hearts of the readers and this story of loss and reconciliation grabs you from the very first sentence.
I loved this story and i think it is the magical and mythical side of the story. The writing style of this novel helps to build the suspense and had me willing the nameless character to succeed and bond with her mother. This of course does happen but under the most saddest of situations, causing your heart to break as the only reason they are not together is because of the past. I have always been a fan of this type of writing and i have already added this to the list that i want to have in the physical form. It also has been wanting more about the girl and how and what she does in her life. Please I need more of this story ......
