A brilliant book.
Fevvers is the toast of Europe, but is she a fake? American journalist, Jack Walser, decides to find out, but ends up falling for Fevvers and joining the circus in order to be near her.
This novel has lots of Carter's trademark themes. In order to enjoy the novel completely you must suspend belief in what is true and what isn't, as there are dancing tigers educated apes, the leader of which overthrows their trainer and arranges a new contract.
A thoroughly enjoyable book.
