When Jacob Jankowski, recently orphaned and suddenly adrift, jumps onto a passing train, he enters a world of freaks, grifters, and misfits, a second-rate circus struggling to survive during the Great Depression, making one-night stands in town after endless town. A veterinary student who almost earned his degree, Jacob is put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie. It is there that he meets Marlena, the beautiful young star of the equestrian act, who is married to August, the charismatic but twisted animal trainer. He also meets Rosie, an elephant who seems untrainable until he discovers a way to reach her. 001460186 650_0 $$aCircus$$vFiction. 001460186 650_0 $$aDepressions$$vFiction. 001460186 650_0 $$aCircus performers$$vFiction. 001460186 650_6 $$aCirque$$0(CaQQLa)201-0015966$$vRomans, nouvelles, etc.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0377299 001460186 650_6 $$aCrises économiques$$0(CaQQLa)201-0007469$$vRomans, nouvelles, etc.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0377299 001460186 650_7 $$aCircus.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00861646 001460186 650_7 $$aCircus performers.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00861671 001460186 650_7 $$aDepressions.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00890969 001460186 655_7 $$aRomance fiction.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01921732 001460186 655_7 $$aHistorical fiction.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01726640 001460186 655_7 $$aFiction.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01423787 001460186 655_7 $$aHistorical fiction.$$2gsafd 001460186 655_7 $$aLove stories.$$2gsafd 001460186 655_7 $$aHistorical fiction.$$2lcgft 001460186 655_7 $$aRomance fiction.$$2lcgft 001460186 85200 $$bsc 001460186 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1460186$$pGLOBAL_SET 001460186 980__ $$aBOOK 001460186 980__ $$aBIB
