Produktbeschreibung

Nathalie arrives at the circus in Vladivostok, Russia, fresh out of art college in Geneva. She is there to design the costumes for a trio of artists who are due to perform one of the most dangerous acts of all: the Russian bar. As winter approaches, the season at Vladivostok winds down, the windy port city deserted as performers head home. Only the Russian-bar trio remain. They are scheduled to perform at a festival in Ulan-Ude, just before Christmas. What ensues is an intimate and beguiling account of four people learning to work with and trust one another. This is a book about the delicate balance that must be achieved when flirting with death in such spectacular fashion. Set against the backdrop of a cloudy ocean, Vladivostok Circus explores collaboration, creativity and belonging, all the while immersing the reader in Dusapin's trademark dreamlike prose.
