In Lima an elephant can change the course of a man's life-or the manner of his death. Jennie Dixianna entices men with her dazzling Spin of Death and keeps them in line with secrets locked in a cedar box. The lonely wife of the show's manager has each room of her house painted like a sideshow banner, indulging her desperate passion for a young painter. And a former clown seeks consolation from his loveless marriage in his post-circus job at Clown Alley Cleaners.In her astonishing debut, Cathy Day follows the circus people into their everyday lives, bringing the greatest show on earth to the page.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51666176213280,"sku":"NEW0156032023","price":13.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71kBJQGWJKL.jpg?v=1778922963","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-circus-in-winter-a-debut-literary-novel-of-family-love-and-small-town-dreams-0156032023","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
