A library book.

This book tells the recounting of a man's journey through circus life in the 1930's. This story did not tug too much at my heart strings, and I felt I was watching a interesting high-drama period-movie. The characters are colorful and interesting and the story itself is fun. However, even when calamitous events occur I was not overwrought with concern, indicating more character development might have have been implemented. This is a good book for travel; I finished the book in about a week amongst other activities.
