Not a masterpiece, but a very enjoyable read. Surely good material for a movie.
A man and his home…
I personally don’t like going to circus at all, but I can understand the passion it may bring out in others. Funny how this topic (circus) is seldom covered in contemporary fiction. I recall only one book in which it was as important as in Water for Elephants, that is Irving’s A Son of the Circus… You?

Now, that’s my favorite kind of books. A story of a lifetime, with a lot of human-human interactions and powerful feelings. Having unexpectedly lost my father this year I surely can understand some of Jacob (Jakub) thoughts. A good buy, I enjoy every cent I spent on the book.
Amazon.com–thanks for the custom recommendation. The recommendation engine, after some training indeed is right on target.
