More about the book
In Vladivostok, within the deserted confines of a circus between two seasons, a trio trains on the Russian bar. Nino could be Anton's son; together, they make Anna soar. They are preparing for the international competition in Ulan-Ude, aiming for four triple somersaults without coming down from the bar. If Anna does not trust her lifters, she risks falling and never getting back up. Amid the persistent scent of absent animals, the light grows ever fainter, and the distance between them diminishes as the narrative accelerates. In this third novel, Elisa Shua Dusapin invokes her art of silence, tension, and tenderness with images that make the world more perceptible without betraying its secrets.
